Wordless Wednesday: Winter sun
Author: Mama's Empty Nest
Mama of this empty nest, I’m content to live a quiet, country life with my husband of 40+ years and to view gorgeous sunsets off our own back yard deck. Mama to three adults and Nana to adorable grandchildren, my empty nest fills up again with noise and laughter when they all return 'home'. A former English teacher, reporter/editor, education director for a non-profit organization, and stay at home mom, I retired after a season of substitute teaching at a private academy. Now I enjoy time spent with my grandchildren and family and writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera. Foremost, my faith sustains me as I meander through the empty nest stage of life. My favorite scripture is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” View All Posts

I was wondering where that picture was taken? so several years ago but where?
We’ve had some nice snowfall this year looks like a ski slope in my neck of the woods.

Not a ski slope, Patty. Believe it or not, I took this picture standing on my front porch and aiming across the road from my house!

I really liked the shadows too. The sun was so intense that day. It was a beautiful scene just waiting to be captured right outside my front door!

The sun captured my attention first that day, it was before noon. And then I noticed those shadows. It really was a peaceful moment. Thank you for the nice compliment!

Beautiful winter scape. Now that we don’t have in TX. But it did rain 3.5 inches yesterday! Yay!

Oh, I am happy to hear you got some rain! Actually, that’s what we’re getting right now – rain. This picture is what I think we should be having in January (I took it last year or the year before). Snow’s supposed to come in a day or two.

Oops, not rubbing it in!! OK, I confess that is an old photo. I took it a couple of years ago. I posted it today because it’s been in the 50’s and raining, raining, raining. The photo is what is should be like on a Wednesday morning in January. 😉
