Are you kidding????

I had to let the dog out at 7a.m and I opened the door and seen this...

That's right...SNOW!!!! That white stuff that I can not stand. AND it's still snowing...it's like a bad dream. It is mid-April folks, we've had snow since November. I want it to go away~~~ yes, this is a morning rant--no coffee yet...

Here's another view..

I really hope that this is the last snow fall and that after this spring will truly be on its way to us.

Hope its warm wherever you are......

Butterflies.....

I met up with Nancy Armstrong (HI Nancy!) from Freeland, MI at Dow Gardens in Midland. We went to the butterfly exhibit and then to lunch. It was a lot of fun taking a couple hours and hanging out with another photographer and talking "shop"---gave the family a reprieve for a while :D

Horses and Nature

Some friends of our recently aquired a couple horses and invited our daughter (who LOVES horses) to come over riding anytime. They live on some beautiful property and the weather has been in the 80's so I decided to get some nature shots in while Emma was on her trail ride.

Fungi in the forest:

Oh, where the acorn falls:
Nice autumn path:

Emma in the saddle:Our friend's son loves to feed the horses cookies as well as going for a ride...couldn't resist some candid of him:

We'll be back for a visit again soon :D
