Waiting for Sunset

I worked on the coast for a few days this week.  It's good to get away from the big city and have a change of scenery every so often.  Here is the anticipation of a beach sunset.

Tree Canopy

Today was a beautiful day with the temperature in the upper 70's (F).  I parked the motorcycle under some trees to take advantage of the shade.  Something made me look up.  The trees made a large canopy with the sun peaking through. The branches all seem to be leaning toward the sun.

Don't Worry... be Happy!

These "Happy Boots" belong to our 1-1/2 year old granddaughter.  They help keep life in the proper perspective.

Field of Crimson Clover

I rode past this field today then turned around to get a closer look.  I like this deep red color that only crimson clover has.  What a pretty plant whose main purpose is weed control between crops.

Young Wheat

Our son and daughter-in-law recently moved to a house located on 200 acres of farmland.  They're renting the house and can use the non-farming portion of the property, complete with a river, as sort of a playland for the kids.  Last weekend the wheat was about knee-high.  I'm figuring this will be a photographic playland too.
