Butter On Your Corn

Today I got out with my recently returned Digital camera.. I had the day off.. It was near high noon and the wind was brisk. I will not wait any longer.. The series I am sending up today were all taken on the Break The Rules Day.. Hope you enjoy this.. Many are doing the butterfly .. I thought ok.. I will add another to the fields of joy we share here on RB.. Enjoy

    I can’t believe I missed this Chuck – sorry about that. I suppose this happens unless you on rb everyday and sadly I am not anymore. Anyway, it is a stunningly beautiful image and really shows how you connect with nature so intimately.

    Not a problem at all dear Deborah.. Life has to be lived the way it makes ya happy.. I am on dial up.. Gave up trying to keep up.. I share what I have and catch what I can.. So much to see but that goes for outside and computer stuff.. No matter if you show up once in a while.. If you share that is all that counts. I do so enjoy your minds eye.. Thanks so much..
