Steve`s Country
For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Nature’s Art, #33.
Hi everyone on this slightly snowy day here at Steve’s Country! The sun is trying hard to break through the clouds however and I can now see larger patches of blue sky in the west. So nice to see that sunshine isn’t it? Remember that no matter how thick and heavy those clouds are, the sun remains shining and will soon break through bringing with it warmth and beauty back into our lives. But even when we think times are tough and it seems those clouds just don’t want to go away, we can still find so much beauty around us. We just need to look for it. And usually we will find that we really don’t have to look very far either. Sometimes it’s right in our own backyard. Or along the sidewalk as we go out for a little walk during the day, or even at night.
So let’s look at some of that beauty right now with these pics…
Here we have an odd looking little plant growing up from the moss. I believe it is part of the moss actually, sort of it’s “flower”.
The beautiful dark blue berries of the “clintonia” flower. Nice to look at, not so nice to eat however. Best to not eat these berries as they can cause serious stomach problems.
And then there is the beauty of a rose, or any other flower for that matter.
And if you enjoy night walks, we have the beauty of the moon, complete with craters. There is beauty all around in one form or another, we just need to look for it. I hope you have enjoyed these pics today, a few more than usual. I also hope that you all have a wonderful day and God bless!

Good morning everyone! We have a snowy beginning to our day up here in the north. Nothing serious though, just enough to give things that fresh white look once more. Not that I’m really looking for that white look this time of year. I would prefer that kind of dirty gray look right about now because then it means the clean and green look is close at hand. However, that will come too, best to just take one day at a time and enjoy each day as it arrives. Muffin, on the other hand, didn’t seem to appear to happy about it. I think she was looking for feet to bite. And so begins a game of fuzzy ball! Much better than sore feet anyway, even if it means getting down on the floor to play. Besides, it’s a lot of fun. I’m not sure which one of us enjoys it more.
And now for some nice flowers from my friend Rossana in Italy to begin our day…
No idea what these little flowers are, but they are blue, my favorite color and beautiful!
And here we have a tree, or trees I think, covered in a mass of blooms bathed in glorious sunshine. Now that’s a great way to start any day.
Thank you for joining us again this morning and there will be more fun throughout the day so I hope you will come back as we have another coffee time, nature’s art and hopefully an award too. Until then, have a nice day and God bless!
