Friends....again.....for now......

Mother Nature and I were not on good terms for most of the winter.

We had some words.

I let her know exactly how I felt.

I was not happy with the snow, the cold temperatures and the overall dreary-ness of the entire season.

She responded with snow storms, -30 degree (Celsius) temperatures, wind and ice. Everyday.

She is a bit of a control freak.

But things have changed.

Our relationship is on the mend.

I like her again.

We have hugged and expressed our feelings letting each other know just how important we are to each other. Basically she cannot live without me. And...well....I let her know I will always love her as long as the weather is nice.

It was a moment.

Too bad you weren't there.


She has done some wonderful, terrific things lately.


Look. I have proof.



Our duck friends who like to hang out in our lake size puddle.


And eat our bird feed.



Trees budding.


Dandelions taking over.


A perfectly created nest in our barn rafters.


Cherry blossoms





Farmland being worked over.


Across the street from our house.


Makes for very happy little boys
.





Mother Nature is swell.


So happy we are on good terms again.


Now if she could just give us more than 2 days in a row without rain.



I am not asking for too much am I?

You'd get along with mother nature a lot better if you lived in Hawaii!

I love the tractor!

I agree... so happy to see Spring has sprung here in BC too! And I'm also with you on the rain. Why does it seem to stick around for days on end?!?!

We are showing much warmer temps here too, however our winters are nothing as harsh as yours in Southern California. I don't think I would last an entire winter out your way LOL.

Beautiful pics.

I don't think it's too much to ask....two days?

Your pictures are wonderful!

I'm glad you've made up. Being in a fight is no fun. :)
