Homer's Beauty

It never ceases to amaze me how often that I take things for granted. Ever since we moved to Homer, I've been whining about how secluded and lonely it is here. I've really struggled through these first six months in a new place. But I've slowly come to realize the BEAUTY that this place holds. Yes, it's been lonely. Yes, it's been frustrating at times. But it is breathtaking and since the snow has started to fall on the mountains, I've really started to look at Homer in a different light. You know what is the best part? I get to enjoy this beautiful view from sunrise to sunset. We only have 8 hours of light and the view from my office window is superb...

Joanie, I love it that you have a blog site.......and magnificient photos. Some how I lost my first message, so sending the right through, with no preview. I sent it to the other Benner aunts and uncles. They will love it too.

I've missed hearing from you, just bits and pieces I hear through the writings you do on the other gals' blogs.

Love you guys, know you are having fun with Rod and Sherry this weekend. Bet they are thrilled to see you too!
Love, Aunt Sharon
