  4. I noticed the same thing yesterday in Arkansas’s Ouachita National Forest. The spring is so fresh here that everything is leafed out, but nothing is damaged yet. It’s a glorious time.

  5. JanBeek – Ennis, Montana – With Bob, my dear husband of 62 (& still counting) years, I continue to live a full life. Here in Montana, every day is a learning experience. Every day is a chance to reach out in love! With 8 decades of living under our belts, we’ve learned a thing or two about how to create the “Good Life” in our “Golden Years.” This blog is designed to share some of those tidbits with you. I aim to inspire more love, joy, peace, faith and unity. Hopefully, my blog will will give you a glimpse into how just “Loving One Another” has enhanced my time on earth - and I’ll encourage you to reach out to others with unconditional love, too. A recent blog follower said in her introduction, "My mode of operation is to make the ordinary of everyday extraordinary." I have to borrow that... In fact, borrowing ideas from others is one way to achieve the extraordinary. Feel free to borrow any of mine any time! I'd be honored. To God be the glory!! Welcome Aboard!

    I just learned the meaning of verdant about ten years ago. Lived 70 years without it How many other beautiful words am I missing? I bet there are more words than verdant and
    emerald and olive and mint out there. Let’s investigate!

  6. Carrie Staples – United States – Author, illustrator of "The Yarn Animal Book", probably the only craft book with instructions for making such unique yarn animals as an orangutan, an ant eater, a llama and a star-nosed mole and "The Single Minded Prince, a fairy tale for all ages about a boy and a pirate captain who both misbehave. The books and a booklet series based on each different yarn craft topic covered in "The Yarn Animal Book" (pompoms and other really easy yarn crafts, knitting, crocheting, rya, needlepoint and embroidery), are available on Amazon and Kindle.

  7. nanciec13 – Wisconsin – I am a fabric artist and a professional minister in the Catholic Church. I am married for 40+ years to a most fabulous man. We have 4 adult children, 2 daughter-in-laws ( who we also consider to our children!) and 4 grandbabies. I love to weave, paint silk, sew and design garments for myself; bead, read, write and color. I am also a spiritual Companion/Director and have a special place in my soul for women who are healing and in need of healing from trauma and abuse. I love coffee, quiet reflective prayer time at my kitchen table and long walks to breathe in the Holy Spirit. I would like to learn how to spin yarn and will someday create a spun, hand dyed/painted, beaded, woven fabulous garment of peace!

  8. “If you want to learn to paint, study the color green,” said my artist friend long ago. (Sorry if I told you this before. I tell it a lot. It comes to me often when I sit on the porch abd look)

    1. Oh! I LOVE that!! You haven’t mentioned it before – but it kind of can’t be mentioned too often.
