The morning sun blinded me and the camera,
but I couldn't resist taking pictures anyway.
The air was cold enough that a fog rose from the frost.
I think they knew I had treats!
On a beautiful day like this, I can almost see the Native Americans, tending their fires, and going about their daily lives, with mountains protecting them on three sides. The springs quench their thirst and the fish feed them. The other game is drawn to the valley as the winter winds grow stronger and the snow deepens. All they could want or need, right here.
Our family has tried to preserve the naturalness of the valley. We respect the land, and it continually gives to us...the very same gifts that have been given for hundreds, nay, thousands of years.

Very pretty morning.....
lovely photos and great sentiments to go with them! :)
You are a good steward of your resources. The photos are beautiful.
You are fortunate to live there!
=)
How beautiful! I can just feel the crispness. Even the sun has a frosty look to it.
It's very beautiful there Gail. Lovely photos, sometimes the SUN has an amazing effect on photographs, these are great. Have a great Saturday!
I'm sure that if you had treats the horses would know, you can't get away with stuff like that where animals are concerned. l like frosty mornings like that.
Those are the best kind of mornings, aren't they? And that's the best kind of land you're living on. You are very lucky. Of course, you know that and are highly appreciative of it. That much is clear. XOX
God bless, Gail. ♥
I wish everyone would respect the land as you do!
What a blessing you are to that sacred land. Too bad there aren't more people like you that move onto land. Instead they destroy it and build subdivisions and malls.
The horse photos are lovely.
