Sit-a-while

on swinging porch

where tin-dippers and

sweet water

in cool touches

meet lips

from hand dug wells.

Good morning good people!

Life is a series of phases. Childhood, youth, adulthood and old age each have aspects of living to explore. Childhood - exploring and absorbing the wonder of a new world. Youth - learning the skills of life. Adulthood - using life skills to work, make a home and develop wisdom. Old age - have time to enjoy life and use the wisdom one has developed.

The violets and crocuses have started to bloom. Only 2 weeks until the first irrigation water will start filling the canals. A little early this year, there is a good snow pack in the mountains.

Good Morning, 99%'ers! Today is the second day of our roofing experience. Yesterday, before the roofers left, they asked if it would be okay if they came at 6:30 am today. I am sure they wanted to get ahead of the heat as it was obvious the heat was a factor for them yesterday. But that also means that they will be here before daylight. So we will all be waiting for the sunrise tomorrow morning.
