Bill & I in 1961 at Sprout Springs

Wow! what a beautiful day.   Sun shining, perfect tempurature, birds singing, flowers blooming, it felt just like there was magic in the air, which I believe there was.  I am sure you feel the same way I do about how the warmth of the sun can lift ones spirits to new heights, after the dreary winter. 
Can you believe all that is going on around the world with all of  the earthquakes and calamities, so sad for so many people. 
Being it was such a perfect day for working in the yard, we had our grandson (Eric Law) over to dig holes (six that is) for our new shrubs and azalias.  We also had him dig up a bunch of weeds before they get out of hand, which you know they can over night. 
Kareen and Sean were out ordering his tux, (white that is) for their prom, which is in three weeks, so after that they called and came by for a visit. Two warm rays of sunshine in my kitchen. I am excited to post their pictures of the dance, on my blog, that night.  They will make a smashing looking couple.



REST OF STORY FROM YESTERDAY

Steep slopes are not forgiving, even during embarrassing moments.  Without warning, the woman found herself skiing backward, out-of-control, racing through the trees, somehow missing all of them, and into another slope.  Her derriere and the reverse side were still bare, her pants down around her knees, and she was picking up speed all the while.
She continued on backwards, totally out-of-control, creating an unusual vista for the other skiiers. 
The woman skiied, if you define that verb loosely, back under the lift, and finally collided violently with a pylon.  The bad news was that she broke her arm and was unable to pull up her skii pants.  At long last her husband arrived, put an end to her nudie show, then went to the base of the mountain and summoned the ski patrol, who transported her to a hospital.
In the emergency room she was regrouping when a man with an obviously broken leg was put in the bed next to hers.
"So, how'd you break your leg?" she asked, making small talk.
"It was the darndest thing you ever saw," he said.  "I was riding up this ski lift, and suddenly I couldn't believe my eyes.  There was this crazy woman skiing backward out-of-control down the mountain with her bare bottom hanging out of her clothes and her pants down around her knees.
"I leaned over to get a better look and I guess I didn't realize how far I'd moved.  I fell out of the lift."
"So how'd you break your arm?"


THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with,
watches you from the mirror every morning.
