fred1st > This is my daughter Holli, and I used this one to ilustrate The Hollibear Family Tree, a poem I wrote when she was expecting her first child and our first grand daughter, Abby who is now 8 and who is featured in several of the images and stories here. Read the poem on page 102.

fred1st > This is the same pasture where the sheep graze in an earlier image. I used this as my front page image at the book web site at slowroadhome.com. I like the way the white cow appears like a surreal being standing in its own dimension against the distant grazing mere-mortal cows.

fred1st > A view of the pasture taken from the gravel road that brings the occasional neighbor or lost soul past our house.

fred1st > Dragonflies are a favorite and get a mention especially on page 42 in Dragonfly Migration.

fred1st > This image of the pasture on a moonlight night after a snowfall appears along with the only free verse poem in the book on page 179.

fred1st > I like the perspective of this simple country image, and closed the book with this visual and the words "Goodbyes are not so hard when you remember it is the time we spent together that will last."

fred1st > There was a time in 2005 when I was teaching biology at Radford Univ that I became very interested in avian flu. Ann got me the bird mascot as a kind of joke related to that, and the dog took a special liking to the oversized fowl, roosting here in a window of the barn.

fred1st > This is the homeplace in spring, such a transformation from its rough state when we saw it for the first time in February of 1999-- a house with double porches on a creek. Read October Homecoming page 208.
