It is a grey and rainy morning on the road. We woke up this morning in Gonzales, TX with the sound of rain on the roof.
Woke up with the sound of raindrops falling on the roof.
I am genuinely grateful for the rain. Everything gets a thorough wash. For the people on the road please stay safe and drive careful.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA.
The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins. Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.
I hope you had a peaceful night’s rest. I slept like a log.
We had another beautiful sunrise this morning. We got up around 5:40 this morning to hit the road.
I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to see all these beautiful sunrises and sunsets while on the road.
My wish is that someday I will have the opportunity to capture these beautiful sunrises and sunsets with my camera and put it in a book or even a calendar.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

I am doing great thank you, we are on the road again. Today I greet you from Cameron, TX.
It is a lovely, crisp morning here in Cameron, TX. I am truly grateful for another day here in Texas. I love it here and can’t wait to learn more about the small towns’ history.
I have a few projects lined up for 2024. I look forward to sharing it with you.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

I woke up just after 6 o’clock this morning looked outside and saw it was still dark. So I got back in bed and had no problem falling asleep again.
I left the curtain open and woke up with the sun peeping through the leaves on the trees. The birdsong this morning was so beautiful.
I started thinking about the seasons and the changes here in our garden and our surroundings.
Good morning sunshineView from my bed
Winter:
When I first arrived here in Byers in January, the trees were bare and the grass was brown. I did not see any wildflowers but I was not really focused on spotting any.
Spring:
I left in March, and the trees just started getting new leaves, and the grass was green. Wildflowers were coming up everywhere. Unfortunately I left before they were in full bloom.
Summer:
I returned in June again and everything was still beautiful and green. Different Wildflowers was showing off their beauty. The weather was humid and hot.
Then the dry heat came in the middle op July and the grass turned brown, but the trees gave us shade to enjoy the outdoors.
Autumn:
The grass was dead until the first heavy rain at the end of September then it started to turn green again. By the end of October the leaves on the trees started turning different shades of yellow, brown, orange and lighter greens. I also spotted different wildflowers.
I love how green the grass and shrubs is at the moment. The trees are busy throwing off their leaves and one of these days they will be bare again. The grass will turn brown again in the winter.
My brain is working over time. I have so many projects lined up that I will be swamped in 2024… Wildflowers, Landscapes, visiting small towns here in the USA. Editing backlog of photos. I am working on my South African flower book and wall calendars for 2025.
Well I better get going.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

Welcome to November and all the new adventures she has entailed for us.
Well, as you all know, October was supposed to be the month I was supposed to learn all about harvesting, but like I always say, the path of our lives is not always what we want it to be.
Instead of capturing Kansas landscapes, I am off exploring and adding more towns to my photography list. Enjoying every minute traveling and seeing the beautiful landscapes.
Sometimes while on the road I wish I can stop and capture the beautiful scenes, but time is money and there is no time to waste. One too long stop can make a difference of being on time to load or unload before closing time. If you don’t make it on time you have to sit for up to 15 hours in a truck stop, along the road or on the premises if there is parking.
I have taken so many photos with my eyes that my brain can’t process them all. I hope that someday I can capture them with my camera. I do take pictures on the road with my cellphone and my camera, but as we all know, the quality is not as good as an adequately composed photo with a tripod and all the correct settings.

While on the road, we talk a lot about plans for the future, and as exciting as it sounds, I know all too well that the Universe will dictate when and where. But I am optimistic that all our dreams will come true, and the ventures we want to undertake will need a substantial sum of Capital.
I am trying to save money for my Route 66 Road and Scotland trip. It is going very slow at the moment. I have to sell some photos to fund these two road trips.
Scotland will be very expensive, but I have been dreaming and thinking about it a lot lately. My heart is broken because I will not be sharing the experience with my Dad. I promised him that I would go, and I keep my promises.
Not to worry, I will make a plan, and as in the past, there will be a solution to my problem. All I have to do is look for the clues the universe leaves me.
That is all for now, friends. Have a wonderful day and keep safe.
Beautiful Autumn day on the road.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
