The beauty echoes in the heart
The voice of the earth, the sky: old, watchful
A very ancient strength
Immortal power; the undercurrent of the lifeforce we live in.
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Mom says our adventure has to stop. Just for this week.
She says its not a bad stop it is just because of TOMORROW
You see, it was a long, long, time ago, (December 21—that is tomorrow, but we take off blogging on Saturday, so we tell the story today)
In a land far away–(Eckert, Colorado)
On a dark and very cold, snowy night (7 p.m.)
Mom and Dad began
This wondrous journey
Of 52 years!
From our world your hearts,
Boomer, Mindy, Terry, and Linda
On, Friday, December 21, 51 years ago Terry and I were married
But since this coming Friday, December 21, it is Boomer’s day to tell his story; I’m posting this one day in advance.
Over time as the seasons’ changed so did our hands. We wear our histories on our hands, it seems.
But that isn’t all, for from those long-ago days of ‘beginnings’ we have added to our lives beautiful souls, who make each and every day a marvel.
From my heart to your world.
Linda

It’s terribly cold here. (Cold is relative I know, but for us 4* at Nine in the morning was terribly cold)
So Min-Min Lou was asked if she would enjoy spending her time in the house.
She told us she thought this would be a very good idea.
Therefore, we now have an indoor/outdoor cat.
I told her she can come and go as she pleases! She thought that was a VERY good thing.

Terry and I helped remove a huge old 1918 stoker an coal furnace yesterday…a four hour intense job. And a dirty one on top it.
Not wanting to cook we all headed out to eat a small bite of food. I think that was my un-doing. I was ever so terribly sick all night long. Still [just] on the verge of wellness today.
It’s snowing all around us. But not right here. It may come in later in the day or blow out, one never knows.
Until then, I think I’m just going to do my ironing and then sit (lay) around the rest of Sunday.
Your friend,
Linda
