 I couldn't stop looking at this little statue of the tree men, its part of the sculpture walk here in Sioux Falls, I'll post some color images of them later also, there's something about the color that is just awesome.

Spring walk

A few shots I took this morning before the clouds moved in, it was my first photo walk of spring and of the year, it was nice to get out to shoot a little.

It seems like its been so long, but its almost over. Ethan will be home in two weeks, YAY!
I thought I would share one of my favorite photos that were taken the day of Ethans graduation from basic training at Fort Benning.

I wish we had a little of that warm weather here today, Brrr below zero windchill its been awhile since we had temps like this.
