Goodbye Winter. Almost Spring.




 You just skated away! Quit taking my picture and get over here!
Is this good help or bad?
 
Homework, unfortunately, still has to be finished.

Come play. (Mom can still win a few games...for now.)

Cooking outdoors, whittling too.
Vacation is exhausting.

Pinecone liscious. All gone. Delicious.
Cold cabin, wind swept plain,
and icy rain greet us again.
Juniper fire burns long and sweet.
Doves cling to wind blown branches,
take flight, and flutter high.
Geese face wind, head strong.
Cows moo long and low....
haying time.
Reading and rest.
Tetherball and "Horse",
mom can still win a game.
Birthday party bowling.
A first.
Who knew? Strikes are cool!
In a heap, under warm woollens.
Ice skating: Absolute craziness on ice.
Washing dishes by hand,
scrubbing many a pan.
Read a book in one sitting, one setting.
Claw foot tub: "Who took all the hot water?"
Rain drops one day, snow the next.
"Storm warning," said me.
What if we can't get over the pass?" said she.
"We'll have to live by our wits!" said he.
Burgers and beer, friends quite dear.
Bookstore buy: Pranklopedia.
Oh no.”
An apple fritter for Santiam Pass,
last winter snow run.
Spring rain has begun.
