Before the rain


Before the rain

There is nothing like the approach of a storm in the mountains. You can watch the clouds gather and you still might not get wet as the rain could be in the next county. I saw a rainbow yesterday which was lovely and of course I didn't have my camera with me. So instead of getting a picture to show you, I just stood and enjoyed the moment. The dogs missed it entirely as the rabbits a few yards away were much more interesting.

Aunt Joanne

Ever have a relative you just love to be around? For me it's my Aunt
Joanne. Any time I can get to see her is a great time. She is very
intelligent and her sense of humor and view of life has always been a
source of enjoyment to me.

She says we get along so well because we both have a "quirky" sense of
humor. Could be. We both find something funny in almost everything.

She traveled all around the world with her husband, had an
interesting career, and helps to hold our family connected. She has
always been true to who she is and that's something not everyone
manages to do. At 91 she is one of my heroes.
