WINTER WONDERLAND...
















IT'S ALMOST SPRING so what a shock to have Allen wake me at about 8:45 am this morning with a smile and a nod toward the outside balcony saying, "Look Outside".

It was just incredible to see SNOW everywhere and it was still snowing as I went to my balcony with my first cup of coffee to take in the scenic beauty before me. I couldn't wait to get dressed and out in it as it was picture postcard perfect and I wanted to capture it through my lense before the sun broke through and this magical wonderland disappeared.

It didn't take long for Wendy, Will, Jordan and Emily to arrive as I imagine they were curious about what the ranch would look like once they built a snowman, had snow fights amd marveled at the white blanketed ground near their own home.

We all played in the snow, threw snowballs and tried out the Quads in a new environment, and then I went for a long walk alone to enjoy wonder of it all...

...but enough of my thoughts for now. I hope you enjoy this totally different landscape of the 'ranch' in all God's spendor and glory and see if you can identify where some of the photos were taken.

I was thinking that it all seemed so 'magical', but after my walk around the property, it now seems more like 'a prayer'. Enjoy!
