Nothing more peaceful than a winter's day
***Kerrie @ kerrieskorner.blog
Her prince Bill (her husband)
entered the kingdom of
Heaven to be with God. Please pray
for her.
Decked out in her finest whites
Glistening in the ice coating like diamonds
The gently rippling creeks whispering
Winding thru the awesome countryside
Softly
The resting earth blanketed
Dressed with breathtaking creatures
Spectacular vintage barns stately adorn
the land
Surrounded by white fencing & a manure
cart awaiting the spring
The lightening rods piercing the skies
Adorned with beautiful artwork (probably because we are in Boyds Bear country)
Towering Gettysburg Battlefield memorial
And canons profoundly honor the fallen
That gave their blood for us, brother against brother, father against son ...
Lovely mural honoring the founders of
Emmitsburg MD.
Rolling hills surround the feeding cattle
How pleasant....and poetic.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the beautiful pictures of winter in your "neck of the woods". It looks like dreamland.
ReplyDeleteIt was 88 degrees here yesterday. We still have leaves that have not fallen. I told Bob the new ones would probably have to push them off.
Thanks for sharing the beauty of your area.
Beautiful scenery Marydon!! Please check out my blog today and vote for my Winter Landscape :-)

ReplyDeleteYour photographs are just stunning...so peaceful and serene. Winter when there is snow, can be a time of reflection and regrouping, a time to gather your thoughts and wishes and hopes around you like a comforter.
Hi Marydon! We went to MD..Grantsville...right near Deep Creek Ski lodge and got our Norwegian Elkhound Shadow from a breeder there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful country...reminds me of the Gatlinburg, Tn area before the mid-70's. Your post pics sure are pretty are you close to that area?
Marydon..don't you do those games on Facebook? This program is really like that just point and click it's all preprogrammed..unless you put in a photo from your saved pictures on your comp., but it's still simple..take a look at the site and let me know..it goes allllll week.

So lovely. The snowfall and coverage is just about the same here in my corner. I laughed to see the Boyd bear because on the previous photo, I had determined it to be Mount Rushmore. Ha!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a lovely post, Marydon.
ReplyDeleteI do know Kerrie via blogging. We have been communicating for several years. Her Bill suffered from the same type of cancer that my father-in-law had.
She is in our hearts and prayers.
