We spent about 5 hours yesterday just driving and hiking Hub's old timber sales. We went to see how his tree plantings that he did a few years before he retired are doing. Some slopes are great and some not doing well at all. It was still snowy on some trails, so I was happy I brought along my muck boots. The dog loved the day as he did not have to be on a leash and could bound any where and smell all the smells he wanted.
It was 73 degrees in the mountains. So beautiful and sunny. I plan to do this again next week and now that gas is below $2.00 a gallon I don't mind going out so much. Hubs was having the time of his life and this was so good for him.
I was going to make cookies today but it is so warm and nice outside I will wait until the weather turns, that is going to happen this weekend and I will be stuck in the house.
Today is all about flower beds and weeding and cleaning. Maybe a long walk, maybe I will do the bridges today. I am loving the weather. Just so happy to be out in the sunshine. No matter how bad this isolation gets, you can always appreciate nature.
So I am off to get the boots on and my garden gloves, Hurray!
Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.

Sounds like a nice day. I spent a lot of time outdoors as we got almost to 80* a couple days. Today - is flipping cold! windy, damp, cloudy and chilly. Oh well, today I work inside. I can still watch the squirrels and birds from the window.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Well if the weather didn't turn we would not appreciate it as much would we. Says me who knows it is going to be a nice day here so I can offer all kinds of great advice I would not take myself....
DeleteSounds like you had a good day outside, Kim. I was outside as well. It wasn't hot and the sun was shining and I took some pictures of the flowers in bloom.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great weekend!
Thanks Belinda, it will be quiet and weird.

ReplyDeleteThanks Rue.
DeleteYes, we need a little drive, perhaps on Sunday before the family Zoom calls and after brunch. Tomorrow I hope to get outside for much of the day, raking and thinking about where my garden plants might go.
ReplyDeleteYou will love it, I swear digging in the dirt is good for the soul.
