FOR THE LOVE OF JUNK

SOME WOMEN DREAM OF BEAUTIFUL HOMES AND PERFECTION. SOME DREAM OF THE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH, OUTCAST ITEMS, THE TATTERED, THE CRAZED, THE RUSTED AND SOMETIMES DISCARDED TREASURES. IM A MEMBER OF THE SECOND GROUP. I'M A JUNKER FOR LIFE!

It feels more like summer.

         The thermostat in my house says early summer, still some of the spring flowers keep lingering, I still like to go outside, sit and watch. With all the rain in the last couple of weeks we did get to enjoy a green spring after a 2 years of not seeing my beautiful natives come out. Let me share some pictures I took around the property. pretty soon it all be brown.

              My Juju having a ball playing in the bluebonnets. He will hop like a lamb and then swish his face against the flowers.







                       The back acreage is full of native daisies, bluebonnest and everything else.



                            This spot will make a perfect spot for a fire ring. Maybe someday.
                                     The shop, the storage building and DH workshop.
                                       A giant kennel with no dogs. Maybe I should start a pet hotel.

                                                                        My little house


 The three amigos. This are 3 gigantic oaks in front of my house. I fell in love with this trees the moment I set foot in the property. I sit under them almost daily and thank God for them.
                               My neighbor's home and my driveway full of bluebonnets.

                                                   Some more wildflowers. got to love it.!
 Thanks for indulging me. I think that is known to everybody that I LOVE the land that God provided for us. I pray for so many years and I finally found it one day. Everybody that set foot in it falls in love with it. It had been a source of joy for my family and my friends and a day doesn't go by that I thank God for it, for every tree, every flower, the possums, skunks, coyotes at night, the horse and mule sounds, the smell, everything about it. God is good.
