Just chillin'

 Some days it's all about just remembering to breathe and enjoy the blessings God has given me. We have had some good rainfall for the last couple of days, so that will help the fire situation, locally at least. 

No better way to relax than to head out to the gazebo and stop, look and listen. Oh, and take photos 😁

The squirrel was scolding me. So I shot him (with my camera!!!)




I wasn't about to leave, so he did. 

Next up was the Mallards. They came a cruisin' upriver, ducking for food. Is that why they are called ducks?



They look just like the rock!

It was awesome to just sit there and listen to the birdcalls, and watch the thunderheads building in the sky. 

About then the thunderheads started rumbling so it was time to head in. Right, Thumper? 

Umm, Thumper, you coming? 

I ground worked Ruby in the round pen, now that we have finished the set up on it. I will do a separate post on that. The horse dentist is coming today to work on her, so after that I will be riding her. 


Thumper sez: Yeah get to work Ruby and keep your nose out of my barn!

Cute photos of Squirrly. The best days are those we take time to chill & appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.

What a beautiful place to call home! The flowing river must be so relaxing. I enjoyed the video :)

Spring has sprung. You weren’t that far behind us either. Your new home is very tranquil and beautiful. Good for the soul.

You live in a beautiful place and that Gazebo is wonderful.

I'm going to drag my mules out for their spring clipping and some riding after the rains are done.

Good that you have rain and it brings down the fire hazards!!
