Misty Mountain Morning ~

Yesterday morning found me...
traipsing around my humble farm ~
in my boots and nightgown, camera in hand.
it was such a hauntingly-beautiful & foggy morning that I had to share these with you :

Mr. Bluebird on our fence...


my garden gate...


view's from the shop's garden ~





our woods were filled with what I call 'parachute spider webs'...
I don't know their correct names,
but these industrious little spinners create wondrous works of art overnight,
and on foggy mornings such as this, catch the dew ~




...I try to find the beauty in things, the greys, browns & mossy greens
of my surroundings have inspired me!

...even though it was wet & misty,
it was a beautiful morning!!!
blessings from the farm,
Lori

    It's foggy here too. My children have had fog delays everyday this week. I'd never even knew there was such a thing as a fog delay until moving here.

    Your photos are literally breathtaking. So haunting and beautiful. What wonderful sights to start your day.

    Love your pics! I love a gray morning like that -- misty and overcast -- it has a beauty all it's own...... But it does play havoc with this bad hair I was blessed with... frizz, wings and curls... not pretty at all!

    Thanks for sharing your morning with us. Your garden is wonderful!!

    We have these in the country here. They twinkle in the first rays of the sun on my way to work. They are so enchanting.

    Hi Lori,
    Early morning is the best part of the day ... the stillness, the smells, the quiet. Nothing better in my book ...
    Beautiful photos of the farm. I love the last one ... looks almost like Queen Anns Lace.
    Have a great weekend ...
    Teri
    BTW, isn't boots and a nighty proper garb for a farmgirl? It is on my farm ...

    Beautiful pictures Lori. I am glad I am not the only one who throw on her boots and trapeses around the yard with pj's on and a camera around her neck. Those webs are unbelieveable. So pretty. -Steph-

    Just found your blog and will definitely be back for more! Your parachute webs are made by "bowl and doily" spiders.
