Sunday April 10, 2011

iceburgs-resizeLooks more like a scene from Titanic?    But this is Wisconsin.   So believe it or not last night we had thunderstorms and the lake level has risen.   The ice from the shorelines have risen and are drifting out in the gusty winds.  And the temperature is in the 70’s.   It won’t last long, but the windows are opened after a too long winter, and the fresh air blowing through.  But don’t worry I have some  firewood in the breeze way, because I am sure I will have more fires yet this spring.

But it does feel wonderful.   Yesterday when I made it home from Mom’s I spent the rest of the day in the yard.  Cleaning up our gravel driveway, working in some of the gardens.  It is good to see new growth the sign of good things to come.  So perfect for the coming Easter, new life rising, new hopes.      Would I miss this if I didn’t live in Wisconsin year round?  Well not really,  I could come back when the weather really gets nice.  But for the moment I will revel in it.

Marie and Chris have a doctor appointment tomorrow, and hopefully more good news.   Enjoy!

    It’s good to see that the 100 daffodil bulbs took hold! Hope the deer don’t like them…
    Marie is doing well today.

    Thanks for sharing a meal with us. We really enjoyed seeing both of you. Hopefully next time will not be so long in the future. Glad to hear Marie is doing better. Tell Chris to call us if she needs anything. Weather here is okay but very very windy as I am sure Chris has reported to you. Actually will be nice on Tuesday so we are off fishing for the day. God Bless and stay safe.

    I would love to try some wild turkey. Although they are getting so tame, like the deer you can hardly call them wild! If they get a little bolder I may be too tempted to let them keep walking by.

    The pictures are great. I love the ones of the turkeys. They look like tough old birds, reminds me of me. I had my staples removed this morning. But I got steri-strips that were glued on for at least 2 weeks. But I’m like those turkeys, can’t keep me down. I’m hoping that in a few weeks I’ll be able to travel. Thanks again for all your prayers. Marie
