Gifts Here, There, Scattered Everywhere —- Thursday, April 18, 2024

Our world is now all green and growing

The trees are speaking to us and to each other, while they wake up putting out new shiny leaves.

Gifts are everywhere, beckoning us to stop and look and listen

Once more I was gifted with a lovely heart-in-the-making rock—lying there scattered at my feet.

A gift given to me through no action of my own, but to look down, and be grateful for this beautiful free largesse.

I feel so humble and joyful all at once.

When Getting Ready to Set some Tubes —- Wednesday, April 17, 2024

When I was getting ready to pick up a set of siphon tubes to start some water in the rows I saw

A Heart rock!  Waiting just for me!

WHAT A GIFT!

Thank you, Mother Earth!  Thank you!

From my world to your heart,

Linda

I Wonder — Tuesday, April 16, 2024

I wonder if the earth is really Eden.  I can’t imagine a more perfect beautiful, wonderful place than Earth.

From my world to your heart,

Linda

AND NOW We are THERE! —- Monday, April 15, 2024

First I dug all the siphon tubes out the ditches, while Terry marked out the fields

Then I started placing them in the exact spot where they will spend the rest of the farming season.

Then we

Began!

Water in the furrows!

YAY!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-Helping Mom and Dad, Friday, April 12, 2024

We’ve been helping Mom and Dad make cement for the incoming ditches

It was a gradual process because Mom and Dad stirred up the cement themselves

They worked on it for a long, long time

TLC waited in the weeds…Me I moved all around looking and smelling.  It was great fun!

We helped and we rested and we helped —whatever Mom and Dad did we were involved!

DONE! 

We just wait for it to cure, Dad says.

Mom says we are great helpers!

THERE!!! Faintly but THERE!!! —-Thursday, April 11, 2024

CLOUD IRIDENSCENCE!

Cloud iridescence is the occurrence of colors in a cloud similar to those seen in oil films on puddles, located in the general vicinity of the sun or moon. It is a fairly common phenomenon, most often observed in altocumulus, cirrocumulus, lenticular clouds, and cirrus clouds.

WOW!  So exciting to know (and to actually see)!  I’m on the lookout for it now.  

Maybe you can see some in your part of the world also!

Poignant—That is How I View Shadows — Wednesday, April 10, 2024

I love shadows!

But you know that about me already.

They are so deep and cool and mysterious.

They offer shade for the weary

And beauty (with a squirrel) for the soul!

In the Soft, Soft Light of Spring — Tuesday, April 9, 2024

Monday was a beautiful day of early spring

So I spent it trying to get bird photos

Although, I saw a Robin

And a Western Meadowlark sang sweetly to me

I wasn’t able to get their photos!

Which is alright by me.  These little darlings are just perfect for a photo shoot.

The Red-Winged Blackbirds are continuing to gather — singing sweetly in the trees for a day of rest.  After which they leave us for the  Back Forty—which works.  I can always drive up there to see and hear them.

Spring is a time of sparkling excitement and soft gentle days!

What a joy!
