Spring

Spring is such a welcome renewal. I went to IFA to pick up rabbit food and gardening gloves. The chirping song in IFA drew Gabber like the pied piper. Soon she was asking if she could please oh please have a baby duck! Then how about a chicken? I told her Finn would love a chicken. Baby everything is cute. The baby rabbit, Hannah as purchased many years ago. She is less cute now that she needs her cage cleaned.

Becky and Kate are on their way back from "Spring Break. " They had a $170.00 each and a whole lot of peanut butter and bread. Off they went to see Mickey mouse. Both are trained well in sentimental foolishness . They made sure to start at the jungle cruise , sing in small world and cry threw the fire works. Today all were reluctant to leave and return to Utah.

Shawn and I drove up the canyon with the dogs and in light weight jackets walked the camp ground, why the pups ran wild chasing birds and digging for bunnies. I found some trimmed branches with fresh buds and couldn't help but take them to make Jenny's inspiration the Easter Tree. ( My version). Its time to look forward to, to prepare for, to delight in. All those things that the Spring brings.

Orchids

My Lovely

The March wind blows a howling. The mountains majestic dark and bare. The sky threatens a winter warning as thick dark clouds loom low. My gardens rests in a suspended frost bitten state. Today, I marvel at the curvy growth of a bloom delicate and lovely despite the dim dismay outside. My orchid is so allureing so bewitchng and dainty that one thinks it to be fragile and demanding. Quiet the opposite is true . She asks so little and gives such bounty. The essence of what in life is truely lovely.
