There are a few evening routines out here...going out to look at the stars {and Mars which is currently situated among the bows of one of my favorite pine trees}, feeding the rabbits and chickens and everyone else..., and usually sitting back with a book with Jewel who insists on curling up as close as possible to me on the couch. The chickens roost in exactly the same spot each evening {and usually in the same order}, Charlie lays in the exact same spot on the floor, and the deer walk down exactly the same path to sleep in the thicket behind the house. Now a loon is back and adding it's call to the evening routine once again. So far it hasn't gotten an answer to its calls, but any evening now there will be a symphony once again. It's all very comforting really. And any day now garden routines will resume. The frogs have woken up, the grass is growing. It looks like temperatures will not get below freezing in the next week and beyond. This means peas and lettuce--planting to begin this weekend!
