Holy Thunderbolts of Thor!

When I was going out in pasture with the goats last week, I was a bit surprised when I came over the hill and saw what looked like a horrible blast of lightening had hit one of my trees.

I cannot believe how it flung some of those chunks of wood into the ground.

I’m really glad that no goats were out in pasture when it happened.

They were certainly curious about this wood being flung all over their pasture.

It was good for horn/head scratching though.

I actually think I know when it happened.  One night just as I went to bed, there was a huge clap of thunder that made the dog whine and the kitten flew out of my bed in absolute terror.  Now I know why it was so loud.  My phone did also warn me that there was a lightning strike within a few miles of Eden Hills too.  Might have been a little off in its distance.

There is an old saying about stopping to smell the roses. I think it’s true of all flowers.

It’s good to enjoy their scent.

It’s good to enjoy their beauty.

We do not have to eat them.  Please, Sky, do not eat my flowers!

Or my house plants.  You are not a vegetarian.

I hope you’ll come back to join me for Friday’s Hunt.  I have this week’s items listed at the top of my side bar.

When I was out in pasture the other day, I found some wild black-eyed Susans.

I picked one to play with.

Charlie was checking it out.

So was Wilson.

Wilson finally decided it looked like a good snack.

Silly boy!  No more playing with it as a photo prop.

I do hope you’ll come back and join me for Friday’s Hunt.  The items for this week are at the top of my side bar.
