Our day: Mixed moods...
I guess most of our days are a mix of many emotions.
This one for us was a mix of happy and sad...
It was sad - in remembering Mom with some fall flowers. I always feel a deep and renewed loss of my mom as the fall and winter holiday season draws near. We lost her in the winter season -6 years ago in January. We took her flowers out today!
Charles liked seeing this guy riding an old Harley Davidson, with not a speck of chrome to be seen but a goodly amount of grime and some rust!
We followed him all the way into town. I was not able to get a shot of this rider except from behind.
He was going at a good clip as we followed behind him. With his jacket blowing in the breeze-and his hair, too...( being unencumbered by a helmet ) he was, plainly, enjoying the ride! He was the picture of a free spirit-which can be an uplifting sight!
It made Charles and me, both, wish we were riding! I hope we can soon go for a long 'Victory Ride!'
Later in the day, after our return home, the girls came up for a nice visit. (That's the HAPPY part of the day.) All we we did was chit-chat and have some BBQ sandwiches and cokes...oh-and make some pictures, of course, ;) but it was a good visit!
Here we all are!
The first photo is...'2 Kids and a Lamb!' ;)

Your granddaughter is just beautiful. I still miss my mom and she has been gone for many years.
Thanks Judy,
We think Alli is beautiful and she's also very smart and the sweetest girl we know!
She's all grown up-and she's our YOUNGEST grandchild!!

Is that Lambchop I see there??!!
:-)
I'm glad the sadness of your day was balanced with some happy times with your family.
The flowers on your mom's grave are very pretty.
I like the shot of you there by her graveside.
I'm sure remembering her brings you feelings of sadness and happiness at the same time.
I enjoyed all the photos!
Such beautiful flowers you brought for your mom's grave. I know how much you're missing your mom...every time I visit my dad's grave, it makes me miss him even more as well!
Is it legal to ride a motorcycle without a helmet over there? That rider would have been stopped right away over here. What a wonderful feeling it must be to ride like that though:-)
Loved all the pictures...I have a Lambchop too! hehe xoxo
Love the pictures of all of you Junie...even Lambchop. Those flowers for your mom are beautiful.
Thanks for all your visits! :)
Yes...can you believe we had never had a Lamb Chop in the family until recently??
I saw this one at a recent Yard Sale..for just twenty five cents! lol!! He's brand new condition! I think he's cute as heck!!!
