I really was hoping to capture a photo of the quail that are in our yard but they’ve been elusive. Everytime I’ve grabbed my camera to take a pic, they’ve taken shelter under the bushes or in the trees. They are quick little birds. The babies are oh, so cute! Their tiny legs running as [...]

There is a poem that is one of my favorites. It’s titled “Home and Love”. Sweet home. Sweet love. The two together are the best. See for yourself below. If you know the author’s name, let me know. (Thanks Kristen for his name)
