Yesterday I finally figured out how to light my little Blue Spruce. It is still very young. I found a long extension cord that the previous owner had neatly wound and hung on a side hook in my shed. It had been patiently waiting for me. It is just long enough to reach this tiny tree.
On my way to the dump this morning, I spotted this gorgeous rainbow. I had never seen a full rainbow till today. I usually find this part of the drive out of Wrightwood sad, because of the charred remains of one of our previous fires. This beautiful light gave me a new perspective.
This last photo I took on my cruise to Alaska. The power of nature is so spectacular there! I love unspoiled places that are pristine. That’s why I enjoy my mountain cabin so much…the surroundings are so natural. I have no desire to fill it with stuff. It is getting harder and harder for me to drive to congested, polluted cities in LA. I prefer the peace and tranquility of nature. How about you?

Your little tree looks beautiful, Stephenie. Xx
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jules. I love it. I can see it twinkling from my bedroom window.
DeleteI love your tiny tree, so much hope in one small spot. Your photo's are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, PP. That tree has been in the ground for a few years.
DeleteThe picture of the rainbow took my breath away. Thank you so much for sharing it. Years ago, we had a rainbow across the hills behind our house and you could see through the colors to the bushes behind. It was amazing. I agree, traffic is just awful this time of year. Time to stay home and enjoy the peace and quiet. Wishing you and the dogs a wonderful Thanksgiving.,
ReplyDeleteThat’s how I felt when I saw it, Anita. Such a special scene. Enjoy your Thanksgiving! Traffic this morning was light and easy…I was so relieved.
DeleteWhat a lovely little Christmas tree! And such a beautiful rainbow! Lovely sunset (sunrise?) photo, too. I look for nature in my garden and in the neighborhood. It's not as nice as the vistas you get in your mountain cabin, but, I am happy. :)
ReplyDeleteWish you a very happy Thanksgiving.
Your garden is lovely, Bless. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your daughter.
DeleteCute as wee Christmas tree :). I always find rainbows give me hope. I feel like they are a bridge to our planet and the heavens.
ReplyDeleteThey symbolize hope to me, too, Ratnamurti. They are always so unexpected, and they light up the sky with color and light.
DeleteThe rainbow photo is stunning. I'd be tempted to frame it and hang it on my wall. Love the pretty little tree.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cherie. Maybe I will…
