Nest Building

While walking in the cemetery
I heard the Red Bellied Woodpeckers.

I followed their calls.

She was very busy!

I will check back!

Nest building has begun.
I am spring cleaning too.

A walk in the park

I had lunch with my
nephew and my great nephew.
We talked about good digestion.

Pleasant companionship makes for pleasant digestion.
These two have a special energy that fills my spirit with vim, vigor and vitality!

After our lunch we lingered at the table for a few minutes.
This short little rest allows for digestion to get a good start.
We laughed and smiled and enjoyed our special time together.

We stopped at a near by park.
The day was sunny.
The three of us went walking.


We visited a little bit as we walked.
Mostly we were happy just to be together.
Some of our time was spent in silence.
My constitution responds to these two kind spirits.

My afternoon was very fun.
Easy to digest.
I love them both.

Spring Revuvenation

I am home from my first
health spa retreat.

Now I want to begin living the Ayurveda way.

I am making the choice to live as healthy
as I am able.
I am reflecting on what I learned while on my retreat
and how I can assimilate this ancient knowledge into my daily routine.


Not only do I want to change some of my behaviors but also some of my home!


I would like to grow more of my food.
In Ayurveda you eat fresh food!

Basking

Once the fog lifted the temperatures
began to rise.



Under partly cloudy skies I went walking.
Mockingbird went with.
He would stop every now and again for a quick song!



I walked up to the little pond.

Seeing the turtles basking was thrilling.
Little Pond has more and more wild life coming to her.
Spring is waking up slowly.
I am enjoying every minute.

Foggy Morning

Even after sunrise the fog laid heavy.

Slowly a little brightness.

I am packing my things today.
My home prep program has gone very well.
I am looking forward to my Spring retreat.

May you also know the renewal of Spring.

try, try again...



Why yesterday's photos went away
I do not know.
Here they are again....
Let's hope they stick this time.

In the neighborhood

My neighbor's Magnolia tree is setting buds.

In my area this ornamental tree is called,
"The Tulip Tree".

Often the trees will bloom too early.
We will see what happens this spring.

My other neighbor has a large Southern Magnolia Tree.
This tree usually blooms in late spring, long after danger of frost.

It was nice to see the oak tree has it's protector!
