HOMESICK FOR OUR RV TRAVELS TO THE GREAT AMERICAN SOUTHWEST

I was reminded of a big blue Arizona sky as Pheebs and I rolled through our sunny countryside this morning.  I also thought, 'If only'.  In past years we would already be there rumbling along across the rough and tumble desert floors, up into and over the surrounding mountains and down the other side.  Yes, I was feeling very homesick for the Great American Southwest today.  If only, if only.

A FEW SPLASHES OF AUTUMN COLOR CAN STILL BE FOUND HERE AND THERE

Back to the reality of now, it was a nice Saturday morning we had with no room for complaining on my part.  And we were able to have Pheebs window down all the way, with a little help from the Jeep's heater of course.

NO AUTUMN COLORS LEFT ALONG THIS BUSH LINE

Our travels took us to McTaggarts Cemetery somewhere northeast of Exeter Ontario.  It's a hilltop cemetery and always a quiet place for a walk.  So, for a walk through the scenic cemetery we did go. 

OUR MORNING'S DESTINATION

SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS CEMETERY WERE BORN IN THE 1700'S

I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE CLOVER LIKE FLOWERS BLOOMING IN THE CEMETERY

As is my daily pattern we were again home by mid to late morning.  Retreated inside out of the cold 39F air and with book in hand relaxed in my sunroom recliner enjoying the sunny day outside, from inside.  Our birdfeeders are very busy and it's always a joy watching the comings and goings of our cold weather pre-winter flock.

THIS FELLOW MUST HAVE HAD AN INTERESTING AND FULFILLING LIFE
