Fogged In Continued..

Fogged In

We went on a very nice hike today and when we got all the way to the top and looked down the whole valley below us was all fogged in and it looked like a ocean. The fog was all flat and even with the mountains. It was very interesting to see.

My First Poem

This is my very first poem I have ever wrote, so it may not be that great, but here it is. It all started when I was watering a large field of pumpkins.

Thy Seed

How lovely is thy seed, that
thee has planteth
may ye watereth, nurtureth,
and watcheth thou grow

Feeding The Cedar Waxwing.

Now, I do have to tell you that I did not set up the photo with the bird and the hose nozzle, it just sort of happened. It was in our walnut tree and we watched it fly across our field and landed on the hose nozzle so, of course I followed it and took it's picture. I think it posed quite nicely. Don't you?
