Thankful Thursday

This is what I am thankful for~~~~~
That it is just a few hours to the beach, the desert, or the mountains and that I am able to go to all those places

A couple of barns

This one may or may not be a barn but it is rustic enough to qualify----I think

 And this one is shall we say "well used'

Critters

While in Eastern Washington I got several pics of a Yellow Headed Blackbird.  Very special for me

 They flit around so fast--I was lucky to catch this guy

 Believe it or not this is a Porcupine in a Pine tree.  Interesting I thought 

 One of the best ranch horses names Junior

 And this is Newt just a baby and learning

 And of course Jacky ---he loves to run and play

 Went visiting my daughter in Eastern Washington and walked the ranch and also Hog Canyon over by Cheney looking for wildflowers.
Here are some wild roses.  I had never seen yellow ones before.

From the Ranch

These views of Critters were taken in Eastern Washington

This area is open range and these Charolais Cattle were crossing the road we were on so we stopped to tell the mamas what pretty babies they had

 Jacky just loved running at Hog Canyon

 These Canada Geese and Babies watched us as we watched them

 These are mud nests of Mud Swallows on the cliffs at the Ranch
