We have recently been visiting a lot of parks here in New
England. During our hikes, we have been
blessed with some truly beautiful scenery.
Today there is a blog hop called “Seeing Beautiful,” and we think it is a wonderful idea for a blog hop and for a post about the beauty we have
discovered the last few months during our journeys. The idea for the blog hop came from the Seeing Beautiful Blog, our friend Sugar, has joined them and has also been "Seeing Beautiful," and today is her one year anniversary, so stop by and check out their wonderful blogs.
I want to begin with the first chance we were given to see
beautiful in our lives. We traveled
about half across the country to the collie national show. During our trip from New England to
Wisconsin, we traveled through many states.
Because of this trip, we were able to visit parts of our country that we
would have never seen during our lifetimes. And when we reached the show site, we were
able to see something both beautiful and historic. The show was located on banks of the great Mississippi
River!
Locally, we have been visiting our state parks. During our adventures, we have been fortunate
to see beauty on both large and small scales.
From waterfalls…
To covered bridges…
We have seen the beautiful panoramic views from a Stone
tower on the top of a mountain…
We have discovered the beauty of an antique lighthouse…
As well as the beauty to be found sitting quietly by a lake
or ocean…
We have seen beauty in the grace and elegance of yearling
foals…
And we have even discovered the beauty that can be found in
our very own yard…
But I still think one of the most beautiful things anyone
can ever see, is the love that is visible in another’s eyes…
This Spring we have been fortunate enough to
have our collies help us discover the beauty all around us, and we can’t wait
to see what beautiful things they are going to show us this Summer!
Howdy Mates, your photos are certainly beautiful. We loved them all and especially the covered bridges. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteHi Y'all!
ReplyDeleteOh what lucky collies you are to have your humans share all that beauty with you...although, I think the humans would never see the beauty if it wasn't for us showing it to them.
Y'all come back now,
