Wordless Wednesday June 28,2017

 
 
Lake Shastina with Mt Shasta in the background....
I took 5 photos and then used an
online program to "stitch" them together
to make this panorama...pretty fun!
Thursday I'll go up to Advanced Photo in Ashland 
and have them print this out on photo paper.
Have a lovely day!

We have been living here for 5 years and it 
still amazes me that some people take
living amidst this beauty for granted.

It's Feline Friday! June 9. 2017

 
Lucy knows that today is Feline Friday
and she loves Steve for hosting ....
However today she insisted that I post
these newsworthy photos just captured
in my camera this morning before 7am....
 
 
These two darling fawns are still wobbly
and were most likely born in the last 24 hours!


 
Seeing these little miracles every year reminds
 me how lucky we are to be living here. 

 
Have a lovely day today and every day!
