February 4, 2016 ~ What a Difference a Day Makes

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES

Yesterday, February 3, 2016. our creek was flooding. Fortunately, the Homeplace is high enough that the house never floods. The yard becomes a swamp because of the underground springs up on the hill behind that overflow at time like these. There was no blue or a cloud in the sky yesterday...just fog and misery for the aches and the pains from Mr. Arthur on the bones and joints.

Today I had a doctor’s appointment, and on the way home I could not believe my eyes. Blue skies were popping through the gray and even some clouds. Like I said...What a Change a Day Makes.

My Husband the iPhone Photographer

This is Buddy nursing wicked blisters mid-marathon.
This is a Genie shot :-)

All of these pictures Buddy took on his runs in our rural “neighborhood”. He’s never made the change over to blogging from Facebook, so I thought I would share with all of you some of my recent favorites. I really like his capture of our Bridge to Somewhere with the fallen leaves. My son came over and put the three boards going down the center so I could walk out to the mailbox. The boards had spread so much over the 35 years I was afraid to cross it on foot. I still take my cane just in case I lose my balance for some reason.

The road in front of the house.

And last but not least...some shots of the beauty of Nature in our neck of the woods.

I am SO proud of him and all the beauty he can capture with his trusty iPhone 6.
