Upcoming Series: Game Cameras

Today's post will be a quick update on something I'll be posting more about in November, Game Cameras. I've got four out right now. These cameras are not on a bait pile as is done a lot times but on trails so I'll give them about a month before going to check on them. I'd … Continue reading Upcoming Series: Game Cameras

Where I Come From

This week's Muddy Water and Cypress Tree's post will be a little different. I want to continue on the theme of this week and look back on influences in my life. One of those influences is just as this theme of Friday posts says, Muddy Water and Cypress Trees. I'm thankful to have been raised … Continue reading Where I Come From

The Brake

In college my friend Blake introduced me to an area in the delta he called the brake. We probably spent too much time over there! I never know what I'll see. The other day I drove through the area and did get a few photographs. I was on my way to the Mississippi Levee to … Continue reading The Brake

Moments Of Influence

I've mentioned before how messages that I need in life seem to repeat. What I thought the other day was the key point hit me this morning as a part of it. There are moments in my life of influence both good and bad but looking back the moments have shaped me in who I … Continue reading Moments Of Influence

Of the other fruit trees I planted at the same time this tree is the only one to … Continue reading Callaway Crabapple

Two Years

I did not realize it had been two years until my wife reminded me the other day. Two years ago at the end of September after being in the hospital for about three months I finally got to come home. Oh the journey it has been! The day two years ago was special. Oh the … Continue reading Two Years

Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill (Finally Part 10)

I've been chasing Roseate Spoonbills since August. I wish I had kept track of the miles. Well, in this week's post on the journey I have finally seen some! I was looking on the eBird site for the date of the latest sighting and to see if I should attempt it that week. I saw … Continue reading Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill (Finally Part 10)

But God…

I mentioned last week reading Courage by Mark Clements. I've finished the book but am going back through the book now. It struck me the other day in chapter 2 these sentences: "But God is not surprised by any circumstances. He is especially not surprised by those of His own doing." (Mark Clements, page 19) … Continue reading But God…

Fall Tomato Update

Let's look at my fall tomatoes this morning. But first, I'd like to show a bouquet of flowers my daughter picked yesterday even from the pollinator patch. My fall tomatoes are struggling, I've lost a few but a few are looking great. I also have some plants from my earlier planting that are looking great!
