Rubber Booting

in rain refreshed  and refilled dry creeks.  The waters had receded leaving crystal clear sites to enjoy

Clear moving water 

in places dry no more.  What a blessing.

Wading in newly exposed gravel armed with two cameras

is always an adventure for me

A rejuvenating walk to see changes

and crawdad friends is a favorite pastime.

Places were widened where flood logs were removed.

Treasures found on a crisp fall day just lighten my spirit.

The blessings and the healing continues.

Big Bad Pit Bull

meets a crawdad.

Bonnie is not impressed.

She and Lizzy discuss the solution while Bonnie tries to get the crawdad off her paw.

It's The Little Things

that bring the greatest pleasure

like playing in water

barefoot.

Finding a tiny snail

and a green fly on a rock, the wonder is there

if you look.

Here's a crawdad under water

and a spider surrounded by water, my personal favorite.

Mother Nature centers me and makes me grateful for all her gifts.  Town or country, there is always something to marvel about, especially with bare feet and an open heart.
