And the days go by
Feb. 19th, 2019 12:52 amAfter being snowed in for several days we went for a drive yesterday. We couldn’t see the mountain tops–they were steaming in the sun as their snowy blankets melted, and the mist wreathed them ‘round and hid them from sight.
Since it’s been so warm up until the snow, I figured the migrant eagles and swans would have moved on, but we saw several flocks of swans grazing in wet fields. And best of all the sight that always makes my heart skip a beat, pairs in flight. The impressive power of shoulder muscles that propel them and keep them aloft, their wingbeats in perfect time, the stretch of their elegant necks, and the way they curve together and circle slowly to land. A lovely sight that lifts my spirits and lingers pleasantly in memory until early next spring when they’ll come again.
Now, to sight the snow geese flocks’ murmuration over the tulip and potato fields as they rise and school like fish, calling incessantly to each other, and spring will be complete, until tulip time.
Fasted overnight, had blood drawn for lab work first thing, then mammo, now with added sonogram and consult at every visit. Thank goodness I got my lisence renewed on Thursday after the dentist, or the afternoon would have included a visit to DMV. That's a lot of don' wanna on one day.
