A LITTLE REMINDER OF WARMER MONTHS

 

"The key to nature's therapy is feeling like a tiny part of it, not a master over it.  There's amazing pride in seeing a bee land on a flower you planted - but that's not your act of creation, it's your act of joining in."

  7. Great quote. The author is unknown to me and I will have to do a little research. Don’t be surprised if you see these words appear on my blog at some point, Denise.

  16. Denise just what I needed. thank you
    We awoke to 2" of snow it was dry and fluffy so we were able to sweep it off no shovel required.
    It is gonna be only mid 20's today so we didn't want it to freeze. OMDs my daughter and son in law and kitties live on the coast of NC . Snow there is RARE...they had 5.5" over night. Hardly any snow removal equipment there so they are working from home
    Hugs Cecilia

    1. Oh that’s great, thank you Cecilia :) Oh my goodness on all this snow everyone is getting! I am glad yours was an easier task to sweep away. I have been looking at pictures of the snow on many beaches further south. I wish everyone the best including your daughter and son-in-law in dealing with it. Ours is melting ever so slowly in these frigid temperatures.

  18. That is a lovely photograph.

    After a lot of grey sky days, the sunshine came out for a short-while today ... lovely to see. However, we now have Storm Éowyn approaching and weather warnings have been issued for many parts of the UK ... time to batten down the hatches!

    All the best Jan
