Wild Trumpet Vine On The Dunes

I love the ocean, the beach, the dunes and trumpet vine. So you can imagine my joy when every summer the wild trumpet vine blooms on the dunes!

Flock of Birds Weather Vane

I view weather vanes as a unique form of folk art and I love seeing the renewed interest in beautiful and creative designs. This particular weather vane graces the steeple of an out building at the Wellfield Botanic Gardens in Elkhart, Indiana. As the wind blows (and the breeze was certainly capricious while trying to get this shot) the flock "flies" around the spindle  in a graceful, beautiful swoop. 

White Feather In The Sand

While men may have their own agenda, we women must bear the responsibility of finding beauty in this world.
