Into Fall

No words need be spoken here. ENJOY!

Before the Rain

The remnants of Hurricane Harvey will arrive Wednesday afternoon to drench Tennessee with 4-5 inches of rain. I thought I would share a little Sun beforehand from one of the many Sunflower images I captured earlier in the Summer at Batey Farms in Murfreesboro. Take care all, stay safe and dry as best you can. Prayers to those in Texas. ENJOY!

Come Summer

Come Summer there will be days upon days filled with bright blue skies and sunshine aplenty.

Come Summer there will be fields strewn with daisies and bushes laden with red and pink roses.
Come Summer there will be bees a buzzing and butterflies a flitting and birds a chirping in the breeze.
Come Summer there will be bicycle rides and dips in the lake and dusty baseball games day into night.

Come Summer there will be long Sunday afternoons whilst family and friends gather to picnic.

Come Summer there will be glasses of sweet tea, backyard barbecues and thick slices of apple pie.
Come Summer there will be red, white and blue and stars spangled nights and firecrackers popping.

Come Summer there will be. Come Summer.

Sunflower, Batey Farms

Bathed in bright evening light this beautiful Sunflower stands ready for picking at Batey Farms in Murfreesboro earlier this Summer.

I hope everyone is having a great week. I am knee deep in deadline week and busier than a bee. ENJOY!

A litle bit of sunshine on a rainy Monday here in the midwest. ENJOY!

Sunflower!

One of my favorite images from my trip to Biltmore is this beautiful sunflower. There are countless rows upon rows of sunflowers growing along the road on the estate grounds on the drive to Antler Village. The sunflower field is about three quarters of a mile long and about 6 to 8 rows deep. It was gorgeous. I had a wonderful trip. I can't wait to post more images. ENJOY!
