One Day Last Week — Thursday, March 27, 2025

 

We had a rain.  Well, really a light mist not a drizzle, but a mist.  I stepped outside to get something when I saw this—-a misty rain cloud?  A Ball of Misty Rain?  Mist— all light and lovely.

The scent of late winter/early rain is like receiving a special kiss from the sky.

All lovely and unique.

This Morning—Oh the Joy of Another Day — Wednesday, March 26, 2025

Look at this most amazing photo of the sun starting to rise!  The cloud was pink, the sky blue, and the sun a rim under the clouds.

What a gift!

A Promise of the Coming of GREEN —- Tuesday, March 25, 2025

There it is!  New Alfalfa!  A promise of early summer—oh, yes, and middle summer, and not to be forgotten late summer haying season!

What a delight to see—and this year we have not just one 20-acre field but TWO 20-acre fields!  (I do think Terry and I are going to be a tad busy  🙂  🙂   )  Just say’n. And we are planting 10 more acres into alfalfa.

Two Gifts from One Friend in Northern Illinois —- Monday, March 24, 2025

Flying high and higher and highest still, the Sandhill cranes passed overhead low enough for a photo and loud enough for their calls to be heard.

And a wonderful! Complete! RAINBOW!  Sparking the world all washed clean and smelling crisp and new!

WOW!

“The bees are stirring, burds are on the wing, and Winter, slumbering in the open air, wears on his smiling face a dream of Spring!”– Samuel Taylor Coleridge 

Thank you ever so much!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-OH! MY! GOSH!, Friday, March 21, 2025

“Boo Berry!!!

This doesn’t look good!  Let’s hurry home and see what is happening! ” Mom cried as she picked me up and sat me in my car seat.

“Oh! My! Gosh! 

Get in the house TLC and Boo Berry!  Our neighbor is burning his cornfields!:  Mom ran us to the house and put us inside.

 

Later we learned Dad and Mom were out there making sure nothing sparked over our way.

It all turned out okay…but boy, that was scary for a spell!

The Song of March’s Wind—Tuesday, March 18, 2025

Flinging weeds and dirt and messing up hair!

Love you March— the wind brings sap up in the trees, shakes the branches of bushes telling them to awake and helps

Tell the earth it’s time for things to pop up and grow!
