Wind

Today was Paradise...not just a little letter p...but that great big Capital letter P! In all accounts, it has been not the most beautiful day, but such a beautiful, wonderful, great day. Olive has really enjoyed it. It is so fun to watch a dog (I try not to call her that out loud) when the weather gets really crisp. She has run, jumped, barked and smiled all day long. I am sure, for her, being away from our apartment in Midland has been a life changing experience!

I love watching the day wake up. Why it is so magical here I do not know. For some reason, living here, being here makes everything so much more enjoyable. There is a huge buck living in the field across from me. I say living, he is really just visiting until hunting season is over. Last night he settled in and just looked at me. He was fifteen yards away. As we strolled down the lane this morning, a beaver - otter - water critter of some sort was sitting on the ice looking at me. I am sure all these animals want to know what I am doing here, or possibly they don't care. They just want their day to go along peacefully, quietly. I am so obliged to go right along with them.
