Rose Reflections 5-9-14

While I was home for lunch today I took some pictures of the roses out in our front yard. I love these roses because like the Irises, these don't require much care and they come back year after year.

 

This bridge and pond is at the Clysta Willett Trails. The moment was actually more serene than I could capture on camera. The sky was a light pinkish gray. We love taking the dogs here in the spring and late fall but unfortunately this will probably be our last visit for a while due to the over population of teeny tiny ticks that get everywhere. If I do go back the dogs probably won't be coming with me and I will be wearing my rain boots and some sort of tick repellant sprayed on those.

Soul Rinse 3-28-14

Dustin, the pups and I went for a walk today...in the rain!!! I really didn't want to miss our after work walks today just for the rain, so I put my perfect red rain boots on and grabbed my favorite walking partners and mad them all tromp through the mud with me! I had my hood on at first but then I threw it back so I could soak in the sweet spring rain. The drops dripped on my head, rolled down and caught on my eye lashes and then soaked into my soul. The rain made all the colors on the trail pop and everything smelled so fresh and alive. It was a beautiful soul rinse at the end of the week.
