There is beauty all around

As you look around you, you can see beauty everywhere
in odd places and unexpected spots. There is beauty all around.



As you drive up the Feather River Canyon you can enjoy
the beautiful river running along side the road. There is
beauty all around.


There is a nice 'crick' running through our property in Midway
It is enjoyed by fishermen, children, and resting adults who
enjoy relaxing and listening to the water as it rushes on its way.
There is beauty all around.



Many various flowers in bloom are so pretty. They add light
color to the landscape. There is beauty all around.


There are lots of red Crepe Myrtle plants in many yards.
They add a burst of color and are so pretty. There is beauty
all around




A truck load of split fire wood is beautiful when you
think of all the warm fires it will provide. There is
beauty all around.


A big stack of cut, split, and dry oak wood is beautiful
when you think of the cold weather that is coming
and all the warm nights by the fire that this wood
will provide. There is beauty all around.



Then there is the over abundance of fruit and veggies that we
can give away to friends who don't have a garden. There is
beauty all around.


There is so much beauty in the world if we stop to look. It

is in odd places too. Yes indeed, there is beauty all around.

  1. There is lots of beauty all around. Maybe I need to find some from San Antonio to El Paso. By the way you have the most relaxing yard ever! It's very beautiful. I might have to get me a red crappy myrtle I loved that.

  2. Thank you, mom. Sometimes we get so caught up in the ugly in the world that we forget to really notice all the beauty everywhere. And it really IS everywhere!

  3. I think it's neat you give your garden stuff away to those who don't have a garden. I'm sure it means a lot to people. Of course, I love to get the fruit you guys grow and bring me sometimes. It's so good. And, yes, there is beauty all around in nature. I love to look at the mountain right out my window a lot. Every day and every season, it is beautiful.
