Days like this = Priceless

I don't know if we're just getting used to it or if it's just not as bad...but the wind doesn't seem to really bother us that much anymore. Now, it's definitely still blowing... believe me, but instead of taking the tarp (awning) down with every little whip of air, we just let it do its thing and it passes. Some days are much better than others but when the big gusts come, we just pull the door closed until it passes and then re-open for business! Today has been a gorgeous day though, we have a slight breeze, blue skies, the sunshine is out warming all of the nature...it just feels like one of those exceptionally perfect days. I love days like this, nothing seems wrong or out of place...and the lighting is great for beautiful photos!!

And then to top it all off, the moon came out to play a little early tonight...almost full!

There is talk of getting some major things done tomorrow, so I'm off to Snoozeville...I hope you had a beautiful day!

PEACE

Weekly Wedge

A little wedge out of our week:

I made my very first omelettes and they were delish! Egg whites, grilled mushrooms, onions and green peppers and a little bit of butter.

[caption id="attachment_4646" align="aligncenter" width="350"] Color = A-May-Zing[/caption]

I finally found an awesome clear coat for my polish. It's a base coat and a top coat called Double Duty from Sally Hansen. It has not bubbled or chipped yet! Wee hooo

Our view is simply breathtaking.

 Savannah is getting really good with this trick.

J' moved one of the back speakers to the pantry door. When we roll up the bed the back speakers are blocked and you can't hear out of them...one down, one to go!

We went to Crystal Magic one of the local gem and rock stores. I did not want to leave, they have everything I've been looking for plus way more.

Who says you can't feast in the middle of the desert!? One of our many 'dinner parties' with Ray and Kevin; steaks with grilled mushrooms and onions, yummy buttery asparagus and the best mashed taters you can buy!

I'd say it's been a pretty worthy wedge, eh!?

Bloom Shoot

In my (rare) downtime lately I've been shooting pics of the flora out here. I feel the perfect time and light for flower pictures are when it's a little more overcast or cloudy due to the sun not shining so extremely bright to overtake the colors of the plant. With the clouds making shadows on the landscape you can see different depths in the mountains, it makes for a totally different experience.❦

Wow...right!? I just love it. Here are a few more shots of the beautiful life surrounding us...

[caption id="attachment_4630" align="aligncenter" width="225"] Orange Globemallow[/caption]

[caption id="attachment_4631" align="aligncenter" width="224"] Purple Prairie Clover[/caption]

[caption id="attachment_4634" align="aligncenter" width="350"] Time to eat... or breed[/caption]

[caption id="attachment_4636" align="aligncenter" width="224"] Maybe some kind of Ceanothus??[/caption]

[caption id="attachment_4637" align="aligncenter" width="224"] Gotta ❤ the view[/caption]

 Spring in the desert has been a beautiful thing to be able to view over the last several weeks. I can't wait for all of these Yuccas to bloom...it's gonna be a-MAY-zing!

Go on...go 'shoot' your flowers!!

PEACE

 

 

 

 

 

 

Photo Share Site is Up!!!

Hello all of my awesome readers!

You may notice a new button at the top that reads Photos. If you click on the button there is a page that will take you to my new photo site. Bear with me for I am still in the midst of creating it. I figured I would put it up due to how much content I still have to go through...why, wait? (This is why you may see some breaks in time at first...still working on it)

I am very excited about this. It's taken a lot of my days and hours to get it to where it is and I can't wait to just keep adding more...that just means we're still adventuring, doing our thing!

Some of you may get an invitation by email to become a member...if I have your email address. If you want to comment be my guest, I love to see that people are enjoying the pics that I shoot as much as I do! Thank you for your kindness as well.

Happy smiles and PEACE to all!
