Cliff and Kimberly left an ocean cruise where they came across
A most unique and rare gift fro the water and sky
A marvelous rainbow
They sent it to me for my birthday!
How very blessed I am!
Thank you, Kids, (with the Myers) what a great present this was!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
We have the shingles off
And started putting down the boards.
Come Monday —- “If the Good Lord is will’n and the Creek don’t rise”, we will have the tar paper on, and the metal roof.

Walking at the Upper End,
there I saw Three Paths; two diverged and one traveled close by.
We talked to the farmer the other day
I asked when the calves were due
February! Not long now
AND there just might be EARLY ONES!!!
It always seems there is at LEAST one Early one!

I opened my email yesterday to find a message from a long-time blog reader KageDog, who lives in Cedaredge, Colorado.
She lives high on a hill — here is what she wrote: “Linda, I thought you might like this even though it’s not a rainbow. 🙂 Devil’s Thumb from our deck at dusk last night. Hope you are having a great day!”
Devil’s Thumb is that distinctive point way over there in the Badlands.
WOW! Really neat! Thank you, Kagedog!
Love,
Linda
Although we have storms, and melt, and wind, and rain….the outside work still goes on.
The transient cool morning air, bright as crystal’s some mornings
Frigid, shadowed and mysterious at night
The rain streaming through thick and gray clouds changes the earth from white to deep dark brown.
Then the glow of chilly blue skies filled our minds with sunshine
Until a breeze, more like wind,
comes up and whirls the falling snow into a twirling madness
Then the light is gray and secretive. Filling our world with silence.
From my world to your heart,
Linda
