Outside the "Picture" Window

We're going to try something new around here in an effort to make this a true blog with postings on a daily basis or as close to that as possible. The inspiration coming from our favorite window in the house:

Located over our kitchen sink, it provides a pleasant view while we work on the many household tasks that revolve around that particular area of the kitchen. It is not a large window, but perfectly proportioned for the space, and so much more useful than the drafty, aluminum framed, designed for warm places like Florida, window that used to inhabit that space.

To the West (left) out that window you can see the road for quite aways, and also part of the neighbor's field:

If you look straight out to the North, you see a big part of our yard, the North end of the pasture, the road, and the neighbor's other field:

And if you look to the East (right), you can see our chicken house, calf shed, and South end of the pasture. Which is probably one of the most used views, as we try to keep an eye on our livestock or just enjoy the crazy antics of our critters as they go about their days:

And so the plan is to post every day at least a photo looking out this window; some days it will be focused on a particular thing with more text and photos to illustrate. So here goes . . . the start of our "Picture Window" series. Wish us luck!
