The FIRST of the Season—–Sunday, February 23, 2020

All the way from Kate Chiconia in Australia

“Hi there

We’re still getting lots of rain, and I try and take the dog out for his walk between downpours. Here you can see a lovely shallow rainbow that greeted us at 7am the other day. Enjoy!

“

There is was in the cloud hidden sky a beautiful halo of light.

Floating, just there, filling the sky with its delicate fluttering colors!

Thank you, Kate!

My first rainbow of 2020!

(I apologize for pushing the button for this to be published on Saturday. I got very excited about the rainbows and wanted to get them UP for early Sunday delivery and pushed send on Saturday.

I also have been confused with my days, since we went to the grandkids’ basketball game on Thursday, which made my weekend become messed up. Friday felt like Saturday, Saturday felt like Sunday…old age I suppose.

Anyway, I try to always keep my blog current and active with the days of the week and my life. Please accept my apologies for posting this on Saturday and again today.)

As always—
From my world to your heart,

Linda

Congratulations on your first rainbow of the year. And congratulations to Australia for finally getting some rain. I hope it was in an area that really needed it.

Most everywhere has had some rain, and all the bushfires in New South Wales have now been put out by the rain. Towns whose reservoirs have been down to 10% for the past 5 years are now at 100% and actually releasing some. We’re on a road trip just now and every creek and river we cross, we check for water. They’re all full!

    The change is remarkable. Everything is springing up green and fresh and lush – the green is so bright it’s almost neon. Cattle are standing knee-deep in grass, not sure what to do with themselves, dams and creeks are full, dead-looking trees have a veil of green over their branches where tiny leaves are springing out. The grey sky and rain don’t matter at all…

Took me a minute to realize it wasn’t your regular post. Rainbows are special wherever they are in the world. Kate is sweet to send you one of hers while on holiday. 🙂 Have a wonderfilled day. It’s shiny and bright here. Rain again tomorrow and I’m grateful for every drop.

I got my days messed up….I should have put it for Sunday, but I thought today was Sunday. I’m rather a head of myself. But OH WELL

It has rained every day of our trip so far, but WE DON’T CARE! Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain. It’s warm while it does, so it’s not miserable and cold and soggy, just beautiful water falling from heaven and restoring the land.
