This may be the last time I can use the snow flakes for awhile. Friday, might have been the last big snow of the season. We'll see. Anyway, we know that Spring is just around the corner.

With all the snow & ice that we've had this year, our pond is back up. It really got low when it didn't rain very much last summer and fall. Good to see it up.

This morning I woke to the sounds of the ducks on the pond. That's when we really know Spring is close. The ducks and geese come back. I always look forward to seeing them.

The only downside to spring... MUD! Boy, do we have mud. That I can do without, but it is a part of it. We'll manage. We always do!

March 20, 2011 is the first day of Spring. I'm officially ready!!!

Have a great day... look at some garden catalogs & plan a garden even if it's only in a pot or planter.

Remembering... Groundhog Day 2011 - Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, USA

Is Punxsutawney Phil right?

It is Feb 28 th & the last day of February. What do you think... is Punxsutawney Phil right? He did not see his shadow on February 2 nd, so according to Phil there should only be six more weeks of winter. Well, we've just passed the four weeks so that leaves two more weeks. We'll see...

I'll try to find a video of the actual happening to share, check back soon ...

I'm On A Roll...


I'm not trying to overwhelm you today, it just, I'm on a roll...

When I saw the Amish horses pulling the truck out of the snowy ditch, I just had to share it.

We live in an area where there are German Baptist that drive buggies. I passed on going to town this morning. They drive tractors to town sometimes, but I think they will be out driving in their buggies more this year since gas is so high. After all, they have to feed the horse anyway, so why not use it.

If gas gets any higher we'll all be driving horse and buggies. The down side is that there is no heat and air conditioning plus they are slow. The upside is you sure would slow your life down a lot. All the "road thinking" might calm the nerves.

Let's hope these new guys in congress let us drill!

Too Good To Pass Up...

This is Just Too Cute...
