Late Spring

When we moved-in this winter, the Homestead was relatively barren and cold. With summer approaching, things look much different. The trees have leaves, the grass is greeen, and there are many flowering shrubs. Yesterday, we had a Memorial Day picnic on our screened porch during a cool spring rain. We sat and talked about all the work that still should be done, but we agreed that the old place was attractive. It is still a bit rambling and ramshackle, but after five-years in a plastic box (the Escalante house), it isn't a bad change.
