Here and there

Once again time has got away from me and blog land!

 We have been enjoying some beautiful scenes at the farm.
I love watching the sunrise from the back door.


Even our first snowfall covering the yard.


The sunsets can't be beat either!


The pipeliner did take some time off so we could do a little traveling.

Down the road we roll!


First stop was St Louis. 


The favorite on this trip was a tour of the Budweiser brewery.


Its free, and you can sample the beer at the end.

I never get tired of looking at these amazing creatures!



We were lucky to see the whole team in their stalls!

Next was visiting relatives in Arkansas.
They have some beautiful views  from those the mountain tops.


And the views at the bottoms are just as spectacular!


This waterfall is on an aunts property. I could listen to its trickling all day long!

It was nice being gone. We enjoyed visiting with relatives we don't see very often. But its always great to be back home!

Plus grandma sure missed this little face!


Time to get busy thinking about baking, shopping and decorating!

  3. That snowfall is beautiful! We may end up getting some snow later this week. So cool that you went to St. Louis. I live about 3 hours south of there right now but did live in the city for about a year after college!
