Music, music, music

 

First, a horse strolling thru town

After a whole year of no music in peoples homes

we enjoyed an evening with Bixby and Kelly

 and  her friends Mary and Phil 

and their twin boys, Liam and Noah.

The twins refreshed the violin Mike rescued

from the Goodwill and they gave him a few pointers.

Bixby gave it a try also. Noah played his homemade guitar.

On our deck Mike has another Blue Jay

eating out of his hand.

And more music at Sculptero Winery

Our friend Tom Corbett was up from down south

playing for Steve Keys Songwriters at Play.

Life music is back.

Bixby and I had a game of Ping Pong.

Its a great place for families .

And a windy walk on the bluffs to end a fun weekend.

A mixture of good stuff

 We always enjoy a day working at Kelly's. Its beginning to feel like spring in her orchard...so general clean up is enjoyed by Bixby, myself and the chickens.

The daffodils in their splendor

Gifts from the chickens

A fence to repair

Suckers to remove

And time for some fun 

Tools of the day..

The trees are happy

and ready to begin their fruiting cycle.

Back in Cambria

The native Ribes and sage are showy.

Something else that I really enjoy is

time spent with my nature explore

families...

N'nady, Lily and Eden  working together 

to lift the tire.

N'nady begins to dig under it.

"Lets use the stick" says Lily

They could have continued longer

but at some point we wanted to explore

further.... the lagoon

Eden was interested 

in finding life in the water

While Lily likes to mix sand and water.

The sandy water washed our hands.

The mud was soft and turned our hand black.

There is always time to reflect

 and share conversation.

I am so grateful to have these children 

and there wise moms in my life.

I do wonder how we will reflect

on these masked times in the future.
