These views...

Though this weeks storms didn't produce much moisture for us it did give us dramatic and textured skies. I drove into town the other day and right past one of our favorite wineries. I love the movement in the sky over their vineyard. So beautiful.
The other morning between a few rain drops and on my way to clean the coop I saw more drama in the sky. I'm looking forward to warmer mornings where I can sit and enjoy my coffee here for I know soon enough it will be very warm here. No matter what the weather I'm thankful I can enjoy this view from indoors too.
This is my neighbors driveway, isn't it awesome! I love my hood. I know... I just can't help myself I say it all the time. Since I was a little girl I wished and waited for a life in the country and though we've been out in this area for several years now I just can't get over how every single day is a photo op. Though it's hard work living here and sacrifices were made, the reward and joy is huge and beautiful. Spending my days serving animals, my camera nearby and the love of my husband who works so hard to make all this a reality... I feel like the luckiest person on planet earth.

Linking up with T over at
