A Rainy Day and My First Magnolia

 

Nothing is more refreshing than mountain air after a storm. I was much aware of every breath I took this morning. I could remember hikes at Bear Trap Ranch in Colorado, clean sheets that had dried on the line, and the crisp dampness of the creek bank where we used to hike years ago. I was so pleasantly surprised to see our first magnolia blossom, as well, on our new little tree in the back yard. This abruptly brought me to the present and my new life here. And from the looks of our tomato vine, we'll have a bumper crop this summer, as well. What delightful gifts of early summer! I talked to Judi yesterday afternoon. It's hard to believe that she's in Taiwan this very minute. What a God of suprises we serve!
