Today is Friday...................for some that is great news because it's the end of a long week of work.....................for me................I'm not too excited................I have to go into town to run errands. My dream...............my heart's desire.............my goal................is to go to town.............just once a month, something I have not yet perfected. I might look forward to going to town each week, if the town had a Starbucks and a Hobby Lobby...............but no.............only two major grocery stores...........a handful of dollar stores, and a string of fast food chains.............. and dirty sidewalks................not much to pull at my heart strings. One thing I do enjoy, however................is the drive.............
on the way to town. There are hardly any trees...........just flat plains and fields with cotton or hay. One particular hay field is playing host to a large group of Sand Hill Cranes that come this way, for the winter, every year. If you look close at the photo, you can see them all flying and there is a group by the hay bale. I love to watch these large birds and I always look for them in this field.
This is also cattle country. The large area these cows are on, is already an emerald green..............possibly alfalfa.
This field of green and cattle stretches for miles, all the way to the interstate. Once in a while, I might get to see a deer or coyote run across. It is always wonderful to see the colors of a storm forming in the distance as well. How about you?
Do you like to go to town every week?...........or have you got it worked out to only go once in a while?
Do you drive a distance to get back and forth? What do you see? Do you have mountains and trees...........or..........do you have flat land to look across? I would love to hear!
