August and Golden Colors, after a hot summer I always look forward to the golden hues of fall. Now technically autumn doesn’t start until September 22nd. But warm colors of gold, yellow and browns are pleasing to the eye and warms the heart.
Have a wonderful weekend.
August and Golden Colors
Evening Rains, last nights storms brought 2 inches of rain that was very much needed in my area. As the rain stopped late into the evening, the sky turned to a beautiful pink and blue and my one flowering plant that survived the winter was in full bloom as the sun begin to set.

Spring Colors, another camper had this colorful flower basket hanging from a tree at their campsite, so I had to take a photo. A wonderful sign that spring is close.
Plus some wild flowers on the verge of blooming.
Have a Wonderful Weekend
Spring Colors
Winter Color in the South, it has been getting colder even down here in the south. But on a sunny day you can still spot a butterfly or two with some yellow flowers strewn about.
Winter Color in the South
After the Rain here in the south the flowers come back to life even on the beaches. I want to say thank you to all of you that stop by to view my photos and read some of my words. I am not the best at writing but I have often said I like to let my photos speak for me. In a way that lets your imagination flow, a way for you to see a part of creation that is not always visible to all of us.
You may have noticed I have been posting photos from the southern states along the Gulf Coast for a few weeks now. Well, actually it has been since September. On September 30th 2021, I turned 60 years old and wanted to spend that day on the gulf coast which we did.
But, what I have not mentioned until now is that my husband and I have thought about this trip for some time now. We have been traveling for 5 months now and plan on skipping winter all together. I have always believed that life, for me, has never been on my timeline but on the creator’s timeline.
So this is the year that we are chasing 70 degree weather and so far it has been working out, is has been staying in the 70’s or less. The best part is not shoveling snow for the first time in my entire life.
Some may wonder how can one travel in times like this. It has always been my contention that the gaining of Knowledge cannot be decoupled from life experience which gives us a foundation of Wisdom. Simply put Common sense or the lack thereof of Common Sense determines one’s course or path in life.
Cognitive reasoning becomes distorted when we are given a daily dose of half truths to swallow in hopes of some redeeming value. Far to often in the realms of societal constraints imposed upon us, the daily rules and regulations, thousands of rules that regulate our everyday walk. We spend our waking hours in minute details of life.
The face of man kind is changing rapidly due to these effects. Society in large part has lost its bearings its common sense.
Opinions turn one into a thief to steal from others to maintain a feel good attitude. A sense of superiority lording over others in a competitive spirit.
We can all have an opinion and facts have no basis in Reality because they don’t progress. Truth lies in the opinion of the speaker and what he thinks.
Progressions turn into distortions. We have lost respect for the construct of Creation and instead it becomes easier to explain life in what ever feels good at the time. Life becomes motionless at a standstill, you will decay, losing your bearings, your Nature in Creation.
If we leave our nature, the natural beauty that we are, we forget who we are and become someone else.
I see people creating life everyday around me. With their words and photos. Some will see the light some won’t that is just a fact of life. When your desire to live overrides what man told you on how to live. Your purpose in life might just be right in front of you. These are the thoughts that came to me by Creating my Vision.
Have a Wonderful Weekend.
After the Rain
I Can’t Decide which season I like the best – They each have something wonderful to show us.

Floral Art by Design, flowers are so amazing in their details when you look really close at them. They are all so different but are designed with such intricate details that serve a purpose that insures their propagation, by attracting pollinators.
I am not sure what this flower is, but I would guess its name might be similar to corn. Because up close it looks like miniature corn cobs in the center of this vibrant orange flower.

August Brings Clear Skies and some sunshine. With all the fires out west and to the north, I have not seen blue skies for most of July. My brother is very near to one of those fires in Montana. They are packed and ready to go if needed. The fire fighters come by and tell them if it is time to leave.
They do have a chance for rain soon, I pray that it reaches all the areas that are burning, hopefully they will see the sun soon as well.
This red bud reminds me of the strong hearts that we all have, especially during times of trouble. That we can get through anything, helping our neighbors when we can and having faith to keep us going on the straight path. My brother said they are ready to go if needed, he isn’t worried about the things left behind, those things are replaceable, they are just things.
I came across this yellow flower with petals in the shape of hearts. There seems to be a pattern I see, as I walk through the forest thinking about things.
Through the dark times, there will always be Light. New growth will appear, pristine and white. To remind us that life on this earth is temporary.
Make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am.
August Brings Clear Skies
Outstanding In Its Field, just one. One yellow daisy, unique and glowing. As if it is saying, ” Look at Me, I made it.
