What a Beautiful Morning

It was such a nice morning, temps in the low 60's with a nice breeze reminded me so much of fall. So it was a good morning for my walk and this is a picture of my driveway outside of my house yard. My driveway is a 1/4 mile to the gate where the blacktop is. Right now we have the cows in this pasture which mean I have to watch out for landmines.

Yesterday one of the cows had a calf so I was able to get up close to it and take a picture but mom was not to keen on me getting too close

Isn't he (yes another bull calf) cute.

As you tell from this picture the 6 inches, yes 6 inches of rain we received has worked wonders on greening up the pasture.

And the cows are really enjoying having green grass to eat again

Happy cows I tell ya, laying around, chewing their cuds.

Then I go a little ways past them to get really to my favorite part of my walk, here in this area it is cooler and just smells wonderful every time. Sometimes I smell the sycamore trees, or it could be a woodsy, musky smell and then it just smells like cedar which reminds me of pencils. LOVE IT.

I met the bull on the way back and I guess his du got dirty or he is trying to look good to the girls last night, it was Saturday night you know.

OH RATS

really need to watch where I'm going.

Till next time

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall.
