Same shot


Same shot- tonight. I love that one little cloud reflecting.

I know something else I can tell you. See the second tallest tree (on the left of the shot)? When I was working at the farm (in the Miracle Chicken story) of course it was common for people to dump unwanted animals. Well one day I arrived to find a baby tree. just two little sticks and a nice root ball. In a blue plastic bag. So I put it in a pot 'til I left to move down here. Then I planted it (thankfully NOT under the power line!) That's him!! A huge beautiful red maple, towering high :)

  1. I just don't get why people dump animals when there are so many charities that will accept them??

    Lovely that the tree you saved is doing so well. What a beautiful sunset :0)

  2. Hello Linda,
    What a beautiful picture. The tree is magnificent and I am glad you saved it. I cannot understand how anyone could dump an animal. Disgusting!
    Big hug

  3. Another gorgeous photo. You do have beautiful sunsets there. Red maples are such gorgeous trees! How nice you saved him.
    Anyone who mistreats an animal is the lowest form of human life in my book!

    1. Thank you Catherine, yes sunsets almost every night even on crummy days if it clears out just a bit in the evening, it gets pretty. Mom is so impressed and I am glad she can see them. And you know I've had more than my share of horrid humans dumping animals :(
