Today's Photo



The almond trees are coming into full bloom. This is a shot of a herd of goats (and the goatherd to the left in the photo) in the valley below the house.

I think hubby and I will do a photo shoot of the almond trees in Shiloh on Friday...

The expected snow missed us. We had thick fog, wind and rain all day instead.

This was a part of the backyard - the grape vines in the fog. NO photo editing was done.
