Outdoors

If you pay any attention to my blog, you know that we moved into our forever home in January 2020. The only positive thing that seems to have happened this year. I've always been an outdoor person, preferring to be outside rather than in when weather permits.

Our new home has a trail system right out the "back door" and we have spent a lot of time utilizing it throughout this whole Covid Calamity. At least they haven't taken the outdoors away from us.

I finally got a pic of the outside of our home, after we spruced it up a bit. When we bought it, the bushes in front were out of control and there were many bald patches in the front yard. It still needs more TLC, but it will be a work in progress....

It's apparent the previous owners never gave the yard much love, so Toby and I started by building a little flower bed around the otherwise drab looking shed, which they had made the focal point of the yard...

Here it is with a beautiful sunset setting behind it the other night...

This picture does not do it justice, but every morning the sun shines through the little colored panes in the window and cast a colorful glow into the living area....

It's wildflower season here in Central Texas and the wildflowers have been showing off  beautifully this year...

Lake Pflugerville finally reopened the other day, so me and Skye took a hike around the three mile loop around the lake. It really is a beautiful hike, but it was also blazing hot as there is not much shade on the trail. And we are not "permitted" to swim there yet per whoever is making up the stupid rules we are forced to adhere to these days. I'm a rebel though, and sat down on one of the forbidden benches and took some beautiful pictures of the lake...

 

Well, that's all for now folks. This is about as interesting as it gets these days.
