a better yesterday

minooka sunset

yesterday is here again

let the confessions begin

i should have called

i should have smiled

moments void of love

Lord-  …please forgive me

at last the light fades

and the stars accompany my reflections

tomorrow will you sing for me

tomorrow i will make you

a better

yesterday

Back to one of my favorite parks: William G. Stratton State Park, Morris, Illinois. It is usually peaceful here and it is a nice place to see the seasons change. Looking forward to the beauty and color of the Fall season at this park!

Another shot from my recent motorcycle excursion. It is a rainy day here today, but tomorrow the sun will be shining down on me and my Harley, so, we will be exploring, and yes, I will take the camera. Have a wonderful week!

If you join me on a 30 minute motorcycle ride we will arrive at a large wind farm that I like to visit. I am not quite sure why I find these large pinwheels to fascinating, but I do.

Can’t think of a better way to end a day…..

Usually I am at this location early in the morning with sea gulls, or geese. On this visit the river had many visitors and activity.

Another shot taken just behind where we live. This is pretty much our landscape: cornfields, and soy bean fields…. but it sure can be beautiful…

Getting in touch with my inner 60’s child. Taken just outside our front door.

This pond is a moment’s walk from our home. I wasn’t aware how beautiful it could look till I took this picture on my way back from a walk. Sometimes you don’t have to go very far to find a “photo worthy” location!

I enjoyed taking a 2.5 mile walk on my recent trip to St. Lucia, mostly because it was much easier than taking the 2.5 mile run! The volcanic island of Saint Lucia is more mountainous than many other Caribbean islands, so you are almost constantly going up or down, making running a bit more challenging that running here in the plains of the Mid West.
