If you want a place to go that is filled with positive, forward-moving individuals, get on Twitter. It takes a while to “get it” but along the way you’ll meet great people and be overwhelmed as I am with the positive interactions I read and have everyday.
No moaning and groaning (for the most part), no [...]

I hope you have found me during my transition from Blogger to WordPress. I am feeling a bit like a work in progress. It is taking a little more time that I expected but I think it will be worth it – once I figure this all out. Please be patient!

Every spring the ice on the pond starts to get shiny, thinner and eventually breaks open to reveal the cold clear water below. When the pond unthaws the foul in the area sense, smell, see (I’m not sure) the water and come to nest for the spring. We usually get the normal varieties of ducks [...]
