What I look forward to all day long...

If I didn't get up at the butt-crack of dawn everyday.......
If I didn't spend many hours dealing with a 
grumbly tummy hoping for a food break.......
If I didn't marry the most amazing husband who just 
happens to farm for a living.....



I'd never be in the right place at the right time..
I wouldn't be able to witness every minute of a sunset as beautiful as this..




The layer of dust from the passing combine hovered over the
remaining soybeans in the field.
The final light of this day passed through the dust creating this
beautiful, hazy, glowy effect. 
It was truly breathtaking

Views like this one make getting up oh-so-stinkin'-early sooo worth it
Sights, such as this, are the reason I bring my camera and
lenses with me everyday to ride along in the tractor.
You never know what you might see

kaleidoscope sky

Late in the afternoon yesterday, I was sitting indian-style on the living room floor waiting for hubby to get his keister home from a long afternoon of bailing hay. 
I was keeping busy alternating between folding laundry and watching bad reruns of Keeping up with the K's on E!.
 Between insults being thrown back and forth from Scott & Rob, I noticed the unnatural pinkish glow filling every window visible.
I grabbed my Canon and darted outside to explore.
Seems that Tropical Storm Lee decided to stretch its remnants our direction.
Although we didn't get any rain from it, it served as a wonderful canvas for a sunset.
The eerily darkened eastern sky helped to produce a beautiful, creepy, fabulous glow outside. 
I snapped away to my little heart's content!

Reagan wondering what it the hell mommy was up to..
the first thing i noticed when i walked out the front door.. if you look closely you can see a
 second rainbow above on the right hand side...
I climbed up onto the machine shed roof to snap this just before the sun went below cornfield level..


just after the sun went under the covers for the night. 

Just another perk that I love about living out in the boonies......
there's nothing to obstruct your view of God's masterpieces 

I hope everyone has a perfect, autumn weekend :)
