Signs of spring


Yesterday was the first day of spring. Last night there was a beautiful full moon. We drove by and it was just the right moment to catch some shots of the moon rising above the Temple.

I am not sure if the Easter Bunny wears snow shoes or not but I hope so. The first signs ofspring in my yard are the bush tops just starting to appear above the snow. Crazy. I usually take my pots by now to Garden Gate but they are buried still under snow. I would need a snow cat to get out there to them.

I almost forgot to show you!

This is my second post this morning.
When we went to Buenos Aires last week I told you I was going back to the little lady that does the great ink drawings on hand made paper from the flowers in her garden. I wanted to take her some little trinket. Magan suggested I take one of my temple pictures. So I did. When we went to see her I gave it to her. She seemed to really like it so I asked if she would do a sketch of it for me on the paper. The next day I was able to go back and get it. It is very beautiful. This picture does it no justice. There is lots of wheat drawn in. I love it.

What's this about wheat prices?

I read in Berta's blog about the rising cost and shortage of wheat. I thought to my self that the long snowy winter was getting to her. A problem with wheat could not be. So since I could not sleep past 4:30 this morning I got up and looked it up on line. There is a link to one of the articles I read on here. Check it out for yourself. So my next stop is the pantry to reassess how much I have in stock. Also how much flour I have. Remember back a couple of months I randomly bought all the kids a big bag of flour. I thought you would all think I was nuts. Well what do you think? If you did not get yours I still have them here, I cannot remember who did and didn't get them. Or maybe I could e-bay them and pay for the next family vacation.

Sorry about deleting the last two posts

I had to delete the last two posts. I will redo them later. The pictures disappeared off of them.
