Sunday Stills ~ Light
I haven’t seen Northern Lights in ages. And then the other night there they were! Putting on an amazing show and dancing across the sky.
Unfortunately my camera battery was dead. All I had was my cell phone. So to get even these low quality pics kinda goes to show they were really something!

Sunday Stills (on a Monday) ~ In Your Car/Truck
I’m a bit late, the end of the week got a bit away from me when I started adjusting my sleep to be able to work night shifts.
I snapped this photo when I got home after a night shift, so around 7.30-7.45am. Sunrise is so late now and sunset so early.
Featured here is Daisy, my truck. With Didi my daily driver parked off to the side.
My ride-a-long buddies are a dragon and a unicorn (kind of a barrel racer joke) and hanging from rhe mirror is a string of Mati beads

Sunday Stills ~ Cat/Kitten(s)
The barn door has a cut out on it that acts as a pet door for the barn cats. It's an ever popular spot to catch a nap, as well as cute for photos.
This little black and white kitten has earned a spot in my heart, she's an orphan and the only one to survive of her litter of four.
(maybe she should get her own post?)
And this adorable floof is Marbles. This picture is from last summer, she has now moved on to live on an acreage with some dear friends who moved into the area.
Along with her went kittens from this year… Sweet Pea (almost a mini Marbles), Dora (solid black and got her name for her sense of adventure and love of exploring) and Bob (a tuxedo) im happy to say my sweet Marbles (who was ONLY going to leave her to a special home) and the kittens are thriving and love their new home and people.

Sunday Stills ~ Eye(s)
My boy Voodoo, 21 years old now, is a true black however when he was around 15 (I think?) this patch showed up around his eye. It changes size but it's always there now. I've been told its something that is fairly common in Arabian horses. Voodoo is grade but we're pretty sure he's an Arab x Quarter horse - if he doesn't have Arabian blood he sure shows a lot of similarities (physically and mentally) to them lol
Its hard to get it to show up clearly in pictures but his eye isn't a solid chocolate brown, its kind of marbled. A very wise old horseman called it marbled, and he said that those horses can be very tough to get along with but when you do its quite the relationship. That sure sounds like Voodoo too <3
