At the end of the day, here is where I sit with a lovely glass of Chardonnay and watch the sun lay its rays down for the night. The Robins are singing and hopping around in search of their bedtime snack, and I can hear the cattle in the pasture across the road, calling to their new spring babies that it's time to hunker down for the evening. The hummingbirds visit for a sip of nectar, and the resident chipmunk runs over my feet as she hurries to complete her food collecting quota for the day.

Ahhhhh...bliss.




Then, about 45 seconds later, the damned mosquitos arrive, and we run in the house like maniacs, slapping and cursing like sailors! ;0))

A rewarding place to settle after a day well-done. It's a nice place you have created for you and your family, Jen. Would you care to trade the lowing of cattle for the endless hum of traffic, maybe just for a couple of days...? How 'bout that, plus I sweeten the deal by throwing in a case of upper Michigan Chardonnay?
I got home early last night and sat with missus JP on the porch, getting caught up on small things that sometimes occupy too much brain space. I had a hundred things to do, and later we went to a soccer game, but that porch-sitting is awfully alluring. =)
