Miscellany

Maybe you already know that I like to photograph old barns. Someone told me about one that is not far from our house. I have been itching to go by and try to find it, so today was the day. It's old and quite unique. It has lattice work in the open area between the two sections of the roof.








While visiting my sister this afternoon, we watched her Squirrels playing in their big tree. They chased each other round and round and then one of them walked the wire down to their roof.


This Rabbit was an afternoon visitor to our yard. I managed to get a few pictures before he ran under our storage building, which is near the woods. A little half grown Rabbit was in our garage one afternoon. He finally came out and went flying across the yard!


I looked toward the South yesterday afternoon and saw this beautiful thunderhead. We have really had lots of rain lately. What we had today was just a few showers.

Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt His name together. Psalm 34:3 (NIV)

Hi Dorothy, You take such great pictures. I love that old barn also. AND --the thundercloud is fabulous.. Bet you'll put that one on the Weather Underground photo site. WOW!!!!

Hope you have had a good day.. I had until about 30 minutes ago when I got word that one of my cousins (from Huntsville, Al) died tonight. She and I emailed ALOT.

I thought something was wrong since I hadn't heard from her since April. SO sad!

Hugs,
Betsy

Hi Dorothy. You sure have a nice blog and I am now following. I love old barns too and you sure captured a nice one. I love the way the roof was built - neat. We have had a lot of those thunderclouds lately - everyday lately. Have a nice day. Becca

Dorothy said...

Ginny, Sorry I missed the cows. That would have made a better picture!

Becca's Dirt,
I really appreciate your visit and comment! For some reason or other, I'm just drawn to old barns! Must be the country in me.

Those barn photos are great! Those hay bales remind me of a Monet painting!
