Bloglovin' [About, Etc.]

     Whelp, it looks like this is actually happening. Google Friend Connect (aka "Followers") is shutting down soon  and this is a recommendation and/or  reminder for y'all! If you want to keep following my blog then you can use Bloglovin' :)
   (Edit: The widget is still here and technically you can still "follow", however you will not receive any feed updates due to the fact that google reader has officially shut down. So in a way it is sort of like a dead link.)

That's right, new horizons. Change is inevitable, but sometimes for the better:)

     I have been using it for the last month or so, and I really like it. I love to read blogs and all, but sometimes it's overwhelming for me to try to keep up with all the posts and remember which ones I read, etc. 
     Bloglovin' is helpful and useful and really quite simple to use. If you want a full tutorial and explanation about this, then here is an excellent link to see:  http://nutritionella.com/2012/12/my-new-favorite-reader-a-bloglovin-tutorial/

Keep looking up! (And look me up on bloglovin! Here ya go: http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/5621471/f-a-picture-bg )

And a very good evening to you, ladies and gentlemen!

This Should Be Spring

I should be walking through green grass just starting to grow,
I should be hearing birds sing old songs that they know,
I shouldn't be trudging through melting snow,
I shouldn't be slipping on ice and... just, NO.

This should be spring.
How disappointing.

I took these pictures almost exactly one year ago:

Ah, how I miss the sweet air of spring. But alas and alack, spring has not sprung where I am from.

:P I'm not discontent, I'm just yearning for the lovely change of seasons that is supposed to happen about now. 

See ya soon raccoon:)

 

PS: As I am writing this, it has started to lightly snow.

Seriously? It is already lightly covering the porch. It is lightly pretty, but I would rather the light sun, lightly lighting the grass. That's a little light humor for ya;)

Walk Through the Field (FMTSO)

 This is my weather! Fall in Minnesota is VERY nice, not too hot, not too cool; perfect for me!

Went for a walk with my Labs and my camera this week; I am not disappointed with my photos!

The sun was setting and the fountain grass in the field was beautiful! I practiced my manual focusing techniques:) 

I love this picture so much, it has three different types of seeding grass
and it has just the right amount out of focus:)

My best bud: Bear!

My town's weather is BEAUTIFUL right now; hope it stays a while longer!

Thanks for following y'all!
