Now more than ever before we must not only celebrate our beautiful mother earth but do everything humanly possible to protect her and all of her inhabitants. She is a beautiful gift to us all. Let’s…

During the late spring a family with a very special four month old wished to have family photos. You see Tyler was born 4 months early. He spent his first few months in the ICU at Riley Children’s Hospital. Fighting hard and with the help of his parents and excellent staff, Tyler finally came home…

With my Nikon in tow, I took a stroll through our woods last Monday. I am glad I did. The fall foliage was at its best. This beautiful fall day was followed by several rainy days in a row. Leaving many of our trees with fewer leaves. Click on any image below to view a…

Since living at our place a little over 3.5 years, I have encountered a variety of critters. Unable to photograph many of them, here are a few I had the pleasure of capturing digitally. (I had to include one of Josie our Boxer.) In addition, I would like to dedicate this post to a special…

A short walk from our cabin there is a place where butterflies flutter free. Here they thrive on wild growth. On any day one will encounter 20 or more. Flying above your head, dipping here and there, or resting on a tall pink flowering plant. Last year I do not recall as many. But this…

When I pulled up the Weekly Photo Challenge I was shocked to see it would be the last one. I am sad to see this challenge go. It has been a big part of my blog over the last 3.5 years. At first, I was slightly irritated it was going away. How could Word Press…

The geological landscape of the Badlands National Park is worth the stop if you find yourself traveling through South Dakota. For us, this would be our last stop during our six-week trip out west. As our trip neared the end we only had a couple of hours to tour this lovely park. The day was…

This year we purchased kayaks as we fell in love kayaking at our friend’s place in southern Indiana last year. We knew we had to have our own. After much research, consideration, and time we decided upon two inflatable kayaks, the Intex Excursion Pro. Although we were skeptical at first I must say they are…

About a month ago I posted about a winter hike and all was normal in the world around us (at least here in Indiana). Now a month later, things are different. Our state (like many others) are under stay at home orders in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that is shaking up our entire world.…

A bench in winter. Seeing this bench on one of my hikes at our local park I grabbed a photo with my phone. Now looking back at it I think of all the people who might have sat on this bench. Their stories, what they were thinking as they sat in nature taking it all…

Today the sun was shining so we took up a date with nature. This little gem of a park is located about 10 mintues from our house. Quiet place, few people, and a meandering creek makes this a favorite for all three of us. I loved the blue skies and the feeling of warm sunshine…
