Interesting view of the fog this morning at sunrise. Almost looks like ocean waves.

Check out Kirk's latest project!

I have a new YouTube video that's a demo of how I used a drawing that I did as the artwork for a book cover, then enhanced it digitally and used vector graphics to add titles to complete the project. Here's the link:

Pond completely frozen over. This is our large fall. The bog still has water flowing, but covered with ice over the water flow. Robins really enjoyed it this morning!

Our well house plumbing burst so wish us a speedy fix to that so we can have running water again. In the meantime collecting snow and melting icicles.

A Painted Views Ranch early morning. Birds singing, cattle in the pasture and pond falls. Turn the sound up to get the full effect.
