Winter Sunset on the Oregon Coast

Mumsie and I spent a week at the beach with friends in January.  The sunsets over the Pacific Ocean were spectacular.  This evening photo is a wonderful example of the moments of beauty one can experience on the Oregon Coast.

Have a lovely day, dear Friends. 

The Time of the May Flower is Here

It is Spring in the forests of my childhood.  The delicate purple May Flower carpets the forest floor, along with the yellow violets we call Johnny Jump Ups.  I look forward to their arrival every year. 

There has been so much rain of late, thick moss covers the trees with green and the licorice fern thrives.  I love walking through these woodlands, where the creek runs swiftly through the canyon.  Remembering the days of my childhood--I believe I was blessed to have grown up roaming with such freedom in a place of so much beauty.
