This series gives us a good idea of the views you have available. These look very warm (perhaps dry?) or it may have been near fall. In any case, this views look very tranquil and speak to a pleasant place to live.

Wow! To be able to see your horses and all of that green from your deck is pretty much a dream existence. Thanks for sharing it with us, TexWis :)

Beautiful views. I just need a tall glass of sweet tea and a good book.

Darren Lanphere said...

I agree with Joop Zand! The lighting just brings out a great deal of emotion to the pictures! I sure do miss going to my granddad’s ranch right now.

Nothing completes a scenic view like a grazing horse (IMO :)

Daryl E said...

i could easily sit a spell and just take it all in .. sipping some tea or coffee .. lovely

Inger said...

He fits in so well with the fall color scheme, doesn't he?

I would sit on that deck everyday with coffee and iced tea at dinner time. :) It's just paradise, Theresa! The last pic is my favorite!!!

bon bon said...

Gail Dixon (Louisiana Belle) said...

What a view! I'd never leave my house if I had a view like that.

Home is where the heart is... You have a marvelous place down there. Wish we had some acreage like that... I yearn for the privacy --except for sharing it with the critters out there...

Beautiful shots.
Hugs,

Judy said...

And what a view it is :)

Casey said...

Nice to have a view like that out the back door, rather than the dogs and chickens making a muddy mess of the back yard!

Jeanne said...

Very picturesque.
I have never had much exposure to horses but I have been told they are wonderful and friendly creatures. That one is quite beautiful.

Love that golden glow, and it really shows in the last pic.

Tammy said...

What an incredible view! I'd be spending lots of time out there:)

Carole M. said...

beautiful countryside, serene

petspeopleandlife said...

I don't think that you would ever grow tired of that beautiful view. It is serene and so pastoral. To see the horses in the pasture grazing and allof the wonderful birds and other wildlife- well you have an ideal property. I feel that you are blessed and a very deserving person to be able to live there.

Ms. A said...

These are beautiful and very welcome compared to what I've been seeing around here lately. These aren't a bit gray and gloomy!

Raindrops and Daisies said...

What an absolutely beautiful view Texgirl.
You are a lucky lady x

Debbie said...

gorgeous, gorgeous....love the view, love the light!!

Linda said...

You took good advantage of the late afternoon sunlight, and I love the step-by-step zooming you did. I saw Zim in the first shot, but I wasn't sure that was what I was seeing until I scrolled through the others. Nice.

eileeninmd said...

I always enjoy your horse photos. You and the horses have a lovely home. Have a great weekend!

Donna said...

Such a tranquil looking place!

Genie Robinson said...

These pictures are my dream of a place to live. Everything from your home to the land is beautiful. I know it is a lot of hard work to care for, but it is certainly worth all the effort. The birds...horses...the list just goes on and on. These photos are heavenly. genie

Ah, I love this!! I'd love a beautiful rural view to wake up to each morning.
I'm starting my Blogger catch up and as you are one of my all time favourite blogs to read, I'm going to be filling your inbox with emails & comments. I hope you don't mind. I've been a bit absent of late and only checking in to get my Project 366 posted.
I hope your Christmas & New Year was wonderful. All the best for 2013 and I look forward to enjoying your part of the world!!

The afternoon light brings out such lovely colors, and the horse blends in so perfectly. Lovely shots!
