Ribbon Of Light



"Oh, I dream a highway back to you, love
A winding ribbon with a band of gold
A silver vision, come and rest my soul
I dream a highway back to you”
Gillian Welch

Last year we were guided by this golden path back to a very familiar place; home. I wanted these images to stay in my head forever. A ribbon of light as far as the eye could see.


“I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.”
Isaiah 42

Oh Ginny, your header photo took my breath away when I opened your blog. Your photos are beautiful.

The cat tunnel is sort of small. It is 10 inches in diameter. It is perfect for the kittens but too small for the other cats. Maybe there are some larger ones out there somewhere.

"A Ribbon of Light"....and so it is indeed. And my oh my what a beautiful ribbon it is. Wonderful images and such a perfect blog post title. I can't help it, but in all honesty..."There IS no place like HOME".

Stunning captures Ginny especially the first one! It really looks as if a ribbon has been unfurled! You amaze me with your imagination, have a wonderful day :)

Hootin Anni said...

ps...I'm back to answer your question left in my comments: yes, I did change my valentine background/template, the black previously was, well, too black and depressing. LOL

Beautiful Ginny.
There is certainly no place like home.
I'm glad you captured the Ribbon of Light taking you there.
Have a wonderful Sunday.

Do you listen to Gillian Welch too? That's such a peaceful song; it almost lulls me to sleep whenever I listen to it. Maybe because it's sooo long. It goes on and on and on... like a highway.

Nervous At Hobby Lobby
