My Prairie the Beautiful

July 03, 2009

O beautiful, for spacious skies,

For amber waves of grain,

For purple mountain majesties

Above the fruited plain!

America! America! God shed His grace on thee,
and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea.

(Pictures from my morning run on our beautiful prairie).

beautiful! We have similar views. Do you run past the mustard fields? They are so beautilful right now. We went to the top of Mt. Spokane and we could tell where our house was based on the mustard fields. I feel so blessed to live on the prairie! Maybe we are neighbors?

Vredig voor mij,
Vredig achter mij,

Vredig boven mij,
Vredig rond mij.

To translate for the last post from the lovely Oma:

what beautiful pictures especially with lavender, so purple.

Peaceful for me,
Peaceful behind me,
Peaceful under me,
Peaceful above me,
Peaceful around me.
