A Study in Trees

Thanks for all your kind comments and thanks also to the people who have privately e-mailed me. I love how you see the positive things in me, and the reminders that I’m not alone in this. Java keeps trying to comfort me. She keeps pawing at me, laying her head in my lap, licking my…
We were promised a sunny weekend. They lied. But we did have a frosty fairy tale morning on Saturday. I only caught the tail end of the crystal coating As I was in bread and cookie production mode in the early hours. Comfort food… I have ridden Luke twice in the past week. The vet said to do…
How does one get unstuck? You know, that kind of stuck where you can’t seem to carve out enough time (or what you believe is enough time) to do a decent job at something so you do nothing.
I’m hoping that the pain and hurt is on a bell curve and I’m hitting the peak. If so, I will soon start my journey down the other side of the bell and this will all become a more manageable ache. ~ Mary Olson Java and I ran some errands this morning, which took longer…

As Java ran towards the horses, I told her to sit and stay. Look at that obedient dog… Should have snapped a photo 5 seconds later when she went running through the fence and chased them. But I’ll leave you with this angelic impression.

Holy cow! I wish trees grew that fast at out altitude.
Lori – That’s 7 years of tree growth. I haven’t really written anything lately. I’ve had too many other things come up lately. I’m going to my cousin’s for Thanksgiving.
GP – I envy those trees with strong roots.
Roxanne – I didn’t know altitude would make a difference with tree growth. I think our trees breathe in all those manure fumes and feed off them.
It’s probably more the lack of moisture and harsh winds that stunt their growth. But, things to grow very slowly here.
Those trees grew up fast! 🙂 Does it bother you that they block your view of the horses? I love the pictures from your walk, fall can be so lovely, even in it’s brownness and bleakness!
Roxanne – Well, that’s what’s kind of surprising is that it has been so dry here for the past four years I’ve been afraid the pines would die, but they must be a hardy lot.
PG – The blockage is a bit of a bummer as I can’t catch the horses and photograph them running around and mock fighting with each other.
