The Moon Sliding Across our Winter Sky — Thursday, January 8, 2025

Image

The moon was starting to set in the west when I took this photo.

During the night, it had been sliding in and out of clouds — with a rainbow colored ring around it.

Then, one morning, the sky cleared for a spell.

With the moonlight touching my eyes, heart, and soul.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

A Winter Sun Caressed the Hills and Canyons —- Wednesday, January 7, 2026

Image

I was out finishing up my winter outside chores for the day when I saw the sun break through the low-hanging clouds.

Delightfully lighting up the low foothills leading to the area of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. 

A touch of pink on a winter day.

Just seeing the rosy color lifted my heart in song!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

 

I LOVE THIS!!! I ALWAYS WILL! —- Tuesday, January 6, 2026

FOG!!!

Image

Momma would always say that fog was a cloud resting on the earth!

Image

So —- for just a little spell (fog is unusual here; not rare. Just random), we got to live inside a cloud! (This happened Saturday morning. It was so wonderful I had to share)

A marvelous gift for the New Year!

After The Rain —-Monday, January 5, 2026

The rain fell soft and cold New Year’s Day

Image

Then in the wisp of the evening air, I saw a Sun Dog dangling in the clouds—in a few more days, more cold, colder, coldest temps will arrive.

I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised… it is January/, the dead of winter.

ONE MORE!!! —- Sunday, January 4, 2026

Image

This is Black Satin.  Satin for short.  She is very, very timid and very, very sweet.  If I can just catch her, I can get her fixed, and she can live here.

What a mess we have this year.  People are dumping cats like crazy out here.  Our daughter now has 12 cats she has fixed and is feeding.  I’m feeding three (that I know of.) Our other neighbor has about 6 cats.

I hate how people dis-respect their very own animals!!!

There is ALWAYS ONE!!!!, GRRRR —-Wednesday, December 31, 2025

Image

I had to take a photo just for you!  So you can see this naughty girl. She is always and constantly OUT!!!

Sigh!!!

Of course, she jumped the fence, got her hoof caught in it, so we had to rebuild it.

Two more weeks, Terry thinks, and the food will be gone.  Then these girls will go on to something else.

Meet Mr. Hobbs, —- Tuesday, December 30, 2025

Image

Meet Mr. Hobbs!  Someone dumped him off around Christmas.

Image

He is a much older cat than TLC.

Image

It took me a spell to get him, but we have him now.

Image

No, TLC does NOT like him!  Although they don’t fight.  TLC has his nose out of joint and is very mad at me.  I have to work to share my time between all three of them.

Image

It was because of Boo Berry (Mr. Hobbes loves Dogs!) that I got Mr. Hobbes.  But once Mr. Hobbes came into the house, then the Green Jellybean came out in Boo Berry.

Any advice or help you can offer to make this work for all of us would be greatly appreciated.

Our granddaughter in Alaska says she is taking Mr. Hobbs back with her in May.   She adores him. (Maybe he will become an Alaska Air Force Cat!)

Until then, he is ours.

Advice please.
