Day three. One of my volunteer activities is working with terminally ill cancer patients and one of the kids called me in the middle of the night. They hardly ever take me up on the offer to call me anytime of the day or night, so I was honored to be able to help. I could hear the nervousness in his voice but I never said anything. I could tell he was heavily medicated. I want to wave a magic wand, but can't. When he finally hung up I couldn't sleep, so I got on and uploaded some photos...Obviously they went to my journal instead of my profile. I think I need some sleep...LOL
Dean, you are still on my mind....help me get some sleep....you know what to do...

bird's eye view of my property
This is a bird's eye view of my property. The house is in the middle of the property. It was built in the 1800's before electricity. Sweet. Privacy, peace and quiet...priceless.
Deck with snow.
This is a view from the deck. I love it when it snows! We were sitting on the deck without coats the day before.

Funeral for soldier
This was from a funeral for a soldier that was killed in Iraq. He was only 19, and their only son. I volunteer and take pictures of the gravesite for different families (not just soldiers) because I know, from experience, they will not remember how beautiful it was. I had them blown up into 8X10's for the family. This is just one of the photos. God Bless our troops.
Halloween
A pumpkin we carved for Halloween this year.
Butterfly in the front yard.
My horses
These are my horses. I also keep foster horses because the family lost their land and I wanted to help in some way...
Bird nest
I found this on my truck one day. It had fallen from the tree. (Don't worry, it was empty.)
Angelo on the 4 wheeler
You can see more of the cow's butt than the 4 wheeler. (Top middle black spot.)
