New Blog Location

Obviously.... there are no snow trails here at Rays Retreat now. Although, we do still have some snow piles! ...
Sparky and I are trying a new blog location titled Rays Retreat Ramblings. It has a long address, sorry about that! didn't realize it was going to be so long until after we had started the new location.
It is:
http://raysretreat.typepad.com/rays_retreat_ramblings/

Hope you'll join us there through the warmer months.

Easter Vacation


I wanted to get this up for Easter - but obviously its a little past Easter. We've just returned from our Easter vacation. A trip downstate to visit family, and then we even ventured further south to TN and North Carolina. Where we enjoyed the warmer temps, greener surroundings, even flowers in bloom.

Words to Think About

A day without sunshine................................is like night.

We actually had both today.... sunshine and no sunshine. I went into work this morning and when I got home it was just beautiful outside. 60 degrees and sunshine. We ate lunch out on the picnic table, then took the dogs for a walk.

Back in time for Mike to settle in to watch the race. The dogs and I opted for a nap. I am feeling much better than I did on Fri/Sat... but still not 100 percent. Its mainly centered in my head now....
during the nap time clouds, thunder and rain moved in. A spring shower.

Hyacinth, tulips, daffodils, poppies have all made their appearance through the grounds dark earth. Several crocus in yellow and purple bloom.

Hope you enjoyed your first day of April!

Why did the Easter egg hide?
