Spring is coming, and this isn’t a lonely groundhog seeing or not seeing his shadow on a February morn. This is a pair of ring-necked ducks telling you, “Hey! It’s time to find someone special! Spring is here!”
This series of pictures was taken down at the South Pond in my backyard …
I'm a 49 year old Quilter, Episcopalian
, and Lover of Words. I'm of mixed heritage (1/2 Ozark Hillbilly, 1/2 Southern Belle), I live in the Pacific NW and I love to talk about my family, quilting and country living.
Oh, and I'm SINGLE (in case you're wondering).
I am a freelance writer, outdoors columnist and photojournalist who loves meeting people while they are doing what they love and listening to them talk about their passions.
I live a Creative, Joy-filled Life in love with God, all creation and my neighbor (that means you). It's my vocation. I hope that one day, if I practice long and hard enough, I might get good at it.
I WOULD LOVE for you to leave me a comment or you can send me an email.
