A smell like no other!
Lilacs nourish the soul as well as the heart!
From my world to your heart,

In the Silence of the Air —- Sunday, May 5, 2019
Our air is full of the scent of the Lilacs
Rich and sweet and lush all at the same moment
All three of my bushes are in bloom fluttering gently in the soft spring breezes
How very blessed we are, for it’s been several years since we have had blooms
Thankfully not this year.
Another glorious gift from the sky arrived in my message box on FaceBook
A most beautiful double rainbow spanning Vadarae’s cotton fields in Texas. A most delightful sight! Glorious to behold!
Thank you, Vadarae! A rainbow from you, now for all of us!
From my heart to your world,
Linda
Today the Sun Came Out —- Thursday, May 2, 2019
The dark curtain of rain and grey clouds left us over-night
Which is a very good thing.
For you see today, this day around early morning milking time, 75 years ago
My husband started life on his parent’s western Colorado Farm
And, as it was written in the stars, not only would he become a Hotline line foreman for DMEA, he would also continue farming through all the years, even unto today.
Happy 75th Birthday, Hubby-Bo.
From my heart to your world,
Linda
Talk to the Stars—-Wednesday, May 16, 2018
So do you talk to the stars?
Sometimes I do…they are so beautiful, so amazing, so glittering, so vast.
Sometimes I stand on the ditch bank…my arms flung wide and tell our farm…how beautiful it is.
Even after a long day of working in my yard, helping with the irrigation, cleaning the house, painting fences…when the pain in my arms and back almost blind me
I still feel the most profound gift of this amazing place where Terry and I live.
Sometimes the breathtaking life surrounding us –is like a spell… The bats flitting in the gathering gloom, the last of the Barn Swallows feeding on the mosquitoes, the stars just starting to appear in the darkening heavens, the soil thriving and growing plants, the plants forming from little seeds,
It all weaves a pattern, like a spell.
From my world to your heart,
Linda
The Earth is Full of Singing —- Thursday, May 10, 2018
The time of idleness is over
The silence of winter is OVER!!!
The work has increased twenty-fold from winter
But…it is never a burden!
From my world to your heart,
Linda
Corn’s Up!
And the lilacs are blooming!
Plus everywhere I get to pick up plastic shopping bags! Even in the lilac bushes! The wind has been amazing this year, bringing with it dust, dirt, mud rain, and other people’s trash.
As long as there is snow in the mountains surrounding us we will have wind, but once the visible snow is gone it stops. We have had more wind than normal, so possibly there is more snow in ‘them thar hills’ than normal?
Today it is around 81*, lovely. No wind, just sun and blue, blue skies. Ahhhh.
