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.

What a huge surprise!

A teeny tiny bit of Spring!

And a wee joy for my eyes to see!

The 4010 is sick.  The hydraulic’s aren’t working very well.

Tractor-hospitalSo yesterday, Terry and a good friend of his, started helping the poor old Deere to feel better.  This tractor is one of the main workhorses of our small but might fleet.  Each one has a particular purpose, with this one being the tractor which has the loader on it.

Sick

The loader is another workhorse; used for so many things.

Today is wonderful…it is warm enough I am able to open the windows upstairs (where the rooms get unbearably stuffy and hot).  This where I keep my computer and tiny little office.

Just look at the beautiful sunlight shining on the Roubidoux Canyon!! You can see that our mesa, California Mesa drops off and then the canyon starts.

Sunlight-in-the-canyon

The wind is just now coming up, although it seems to be a warm wind.

My-fav

My favorite little spring time flower is blooming…I so enjoy these cheerful and bright little ‘weeds’!

Today I’m working in my yard, there are things I have been wanting to do — I’ve just been waiting for a nice day to do them in.

My wish is that this is a wonderful day for you, full of the perfect weather for your area, and you are able to accomplish whatever you set out to do—even if it is to rest.  Resting is very necessary; as much as work is.

Best Wishes My Friends,

Linda
