Ah, my daily check of Rurality has paid off again. Nice to see you are still alive. Hope your soap making and sales went well for the holiday season and that you will soon have time to talk to us all again.
Glad you got a chance to take those nice pix during the busy season.
By coincidence, I saw the first waxwings actually in our yard yesterday... Well, in our yard-list range, on the fringes of a mostly-housefinch flock in the Lombardy poplars across the yard next door. Got out of the car and thought, "What's that high-piched whine, sounds familiar...?"
Welcome back, Karen. It's so nice to see what you're looking at these days. I've missed you. Hope things are going well for you and you'll have time soon to blog more often. Have a wonderful holiday.
Hey, I was in Borders today and there was a book, "Blogosphere, The Best Blogs"... I think that's right. You were in there! You probably already know that, but I thought it was pretty darn cool. Speech! Speech!
Gary, would you believe I haven't even had time to do any Christmas shopping?! I don't think I'll be getting a new camera, but we may get one of those game cameras that will take pictures of the critters as they walk past. Sneaky spy vision to see what animals are doing around here at night.
Well my vanity being what it is, I had to try to look up that book at the store... they said it wouldn't be out until February! Maybe FC dreamed the whole thing...
No, no I know I was awake because I was spending money and I never do that in my dreams. There was only one copy...I believe Milkriver was in there too. I was just skimming, sorry for sketchy details, but I'm pretty sure I was awake...darn narcolepsy!
Nice pictures. The clouds are unusual.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a few minutes to post as well. Miss you..

ReplyDeleteHappy holidays!
I've always heard that such a "flock of sheep" formation of clouds was a harbinger of rain in the next couple of days.
ReplyDeleteLike OW, I have clicked daily hoping for some Alabama wit and wisdom. Glad you are back!
ReplyDeleteI've missed you, welcome back (even if just for a few minutes.)
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you posting again. Cedar waxwings are the coolest of birds, wearing their Lone Ranger masks and getting drunk on holly berries.

I hope the season's productive AND fun for you!
Trapunto clouds...
ReplyDeleteMackerel sky and mares' tails make lofty ships carry low sails. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove that sky. Cloud scapes can be so surreal, probably why they have featured so prominantly in so much art. Great capture!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Karen. It's so nice to see what you're looking at these days. I've missed you. Hope things are going well for you and you'll have time soon to blog more often. Have a wonderful holiday.
ReplyDeleteI love it when the waxwings visit. So very dapper and chipper with their Bzzt bzzt calls...
ReplyDeleteYAY! the photos are delightful and so was finding something here at rurality! i wish you a warm, cozy, happy and productive season.
ReplyDeleteNice pictures as usual. Are you getting anything camera related for Christmas?

FC, no way! You're pulling my leg, right?
I kid you not. You are bona fide famous...they even used your name.
ReplyDeleteThat book sounds amazing!
ReplyDeleteRurality, I am going to send you some money and you buy me the book, autograph it and mail it to me!!!! (If that's ok with you.)
You are famous! Hurray!!!!!
I am so glad you're back!

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness...the cloud picture is absolutely gorgeous. Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteAt long last...you are back...and with some gorgeous pictures.
ReplyDeleteEvery day, Karen. I've checked EVERY day!
ReplyDeleteHope all your entrepreneurial efforts have paid off!
