A Winter Sunset from Yesteryear: for Skywatch Friday

These two, tall water pumps used for refilling steam engines are no longer there, and this photo taken in the early 60's, is a reminder of changing times. However the beauty of a winter sunset prevails throughout the decades. Below, another sunset on a reminder of vintage railroad days, a caboose. Happy Skywatch Friday to all!

Fencing the Snow: for Ruby Tuesday

snaking along winter landscapes
the orange-red snow fence parallels the pasture line
corralling the driving, drifting snow

This photo was taken a previous winter. So far this winter, tho we have had a few snowstorms, the ground cover here so far has reverted to a default green after as many heavy rains as we have had snowstorms. Maybe we'll have a green Christmas this year?
