| Shep in her prime💦 Our prayer: O God as we have taken care of Shep in life, we ask that you watch over her in death. You entrusted Shep to our care now we give her back to You. May Shep find a happy new home in Your loving embrace. As we remember Shep may we love each other more dearly. Amen |
Here we Go...Happy 100 Days of Summer!!

MAY. 2021
A wonderful life...full of work. After a drier than normal April, May is gushing with showers and flowers💥💦🥀 Spring work and chores has been keeping everyone in the neighborhood busy as bees. The bees are back as well as many birds: cranes, hummingbirds and robins are flourishing and having big outdoor conferences in our backyard. A good, new book for increasing your vocabulary is A Sand County ALMANAC by Aldo Leopold. A painting by me is in the works when I need a break.

| May the wind be always at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face; May the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand. |

| Cut an old card out for a place name and punch holes for a ribbon Also bunny ear napkins, just roll on diagonal and fold in half. |

| Dye blue eggs after boiling purple cabbage , the longer you leave them in the blue cabbage water with a Tablespoon of the vinegar the darker the blue. Onion rinds make a soft orangish-yellow color. |

| Momma cows coming closer |
V-shaped flying picturesque soundscapes are dotting the sky again. The geese are coming back to the pastures scraping up seeds left from rolling out feed to the mother cows, waiting to calve. It's quite wonderful and perfect timing. Spring snow squalls frequent our days. Spring is in the air, not too far away as the groundhog might say.
