Here is my project after I scaped all the old paint off
Now I am done! All the peaks and the windows and the door. A new door is going in on the other side (someday)
DONE!!!

I have a very messy yard…winter is always the worst.
It’s because I love feeding the birds.
knowing that the bugs have a warm place to hang out over the winter; and can emerge come Spring—is a very good thing to me. 🙂
I never cut back the flower stalks…there is so much food there for the birds. PLUS! The Lacewings, LadyBugs, Parasitic Wasps; and Native Bees winter in the stems of the now-dead flowering plants.
I even have a brush pile for birds to hide from predators and ground-living squirrels and rabbits to shelter in.
I know.
My yard is a mess—but it works for me and all those lovely creatures who share their lives in my yard and on the farm.
Winter— Week Five! 60 Days until March 19th!
Thankfully the days are growing longer!
Sunshine always makes me smile!

Third week! There are only 12 weeks in a season—we are moving forward.
Rather like the fence line—forward we go—down the straight and narrow—while over there, yes, just over there the road is doing whatever it feels like doing (sorta like the weather, don’t ya think?)—first straight then a sharp turn…roads and weather—you just can’t trust them to stay straight. Not like a fence line!
Week Three! YAY!

Although, it is cold and stormy. With ice on the running rows of water
There are such beautiful signs of early Spring (a wooly bear caterpillar)
Work continues, in wind, the mists of rain and sleet,
It’s a beautiful world of ours. We really can’t ask for more.
