Lake View in Wiltshire

 


Just a bit of the view from our walk on Saturday morning...
a bit of a flashback.
 
If you zoom into the photo you'll see the ducks swimming over to us. They swam from one end of the lake to the other and back again in order to greet us at each end. It was a lovely sight!
 
Wishing you a wonderful day wherever you are!

Saturday - Easter Weekend

Happy Saturday!
 
Just checking in to share a couple of photos depicting a bit of Saturday around the Yellow House.
 
Hubby and I took a walk this morning and this lovely little yellow flower caught my eye...well of course it would...it goes along with the yellow theme around the Yellow House 😉
 
It's actually a dandelion flower I think, which is more of a weed to some, but it's still a lovely color yellow and a flower nonetheless.

Lunch today was lovely and refreshing, especially on this Easter weekend. I made some delicious sandwiches for hubby and me. This was an off the cuff creation just using what was in the refrigerator. It turned out delicious!!! 

 Sandwich

The ingredients for my Saturday sandwich:

  • cucumber
  • onion
  • watercress/rocket (arugula) mixed greens
  • olives
  • cheese
  • chili flavored hummus
  • mayo
  • brown bread


In a world with a lot of heaviness, we must make room for some of the simple joys of life also. So, here's to beautiful yellow flowers and delicious sandwiches!

Happy Saturday! Happy Easter Weekend! 💮

Late January Walk



Hello 

It's been a while since I've posted. I was last here on January 1st and now here we are, with only two more days left in January after today. One month of 2022 will be in the books already. I say it all too often probably, but indeed, time flies!

Anyway, I thought that I'd share a photo that I took this morning during my morning walk. I'm trying to be consistent with my walking, at least on the weekends. I find it to be refreshing in so many ways.

I hope that you have a lovely weekend wherever you are.

Happy weekend 🌿

November Saturdays and Fall Colors


Happy Saturday...

Just thought that I'd share the beautiful view from our nice drive around the countryside this morning. This is my passenger seat view.

The fall colors are really coming through now. Nature is glorious! 🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂

Sun and Cloud


 

I took this photo yesterday, when we were out for our morning walk. 

It was a glorious sight to see the sun illuminating the sky, atop that huge fluffy cloud.

Happy Saturday!

We had a good morning walk. It was good to get out into the countryside and to take in some fresh air. There was a slight breeze and the birds were singing. 

I hope you have a great Saturday and weekend wherever you are 🌻

Happy Saturday! 

Happy weekend!

We took our Saturday morning walk and this was our view. We try to get out early and it's worth it because it's so peaceful and quiet in the early morning. 

Nature is so restorative 🌼

Have a good day wherever you are!

A Tale of Two Photos

Tree branches

 The photo at the top is how things looked here this morning. It was very sunny. However, by the afternoon, it was windy and overcast.

The photo at the bottom was taken yesterday morning. It was a rainy morning. However, by the early afternoon, it had turned beautifully sunny.

These two pictures have reminded me that change is a part of life. It's inevitable. Life is a continually unfolding story.

I hope that you have a good day wherever you are.

I hope you have a great Monday and week ahead, wherever you are 🙂

Saturday Walk



English countryside

Hubby and I went on a lovely walk in the countryside this morning. The view was breathtakingly beautiful. The walk was healing and restorative.

This year, 2020, has been an incredibly difficult one for all of us worldwide. We still have a few more months left in this year and this pandemic is still having its way with the world and will for a while. On a personal note, I've lost two loved ones, two incredible women, during this spring and summer, during this brutal year. 

Hard doesn't even begin to describe this time, but I get up every morning with even more determination to keep going. I love them both dearly and miss them more than I can express, but I've realized that I honor their lives and legacy by keeping going. They both lived amazing lives and gave so much to so many. Those of us who loved them will carry them with us in our hearts always. 

So, as I took every step on my walk this morning, they were with me and they forever will be ❤❤
