Snow on Easter?


I have heard it said "it is raining cats and dogs," but on Easter i was not prepared to have snow with the rain with the hail and wind storm... i think i heard a robin calling for "Auntie Em" and i thought i saw a house fall on a really mean lady in town and her feet curled up and i ran off with a new pair of ruby slippers.... anyway.... all i know is that i am glad my kids are 14 and 11 cause they wanted to have an egg fight more than hunt them. which of course i didnt allow.. cause thars deviled eggs in them thar hills!!!! so off course the cousins scavanaged the thick grass laiden with inches of hail and sleet. thier breath was seen hovering in the air around them and the parents waved from inside the house as we passed jello jigglers around. it was great.

Today much of the same weather as i worked outside the Historic Foster Farm in my 1850's clothing... ( not 1950's ) wishing for electricty instead of relying on how hot i could get the wood stove in the house... forget building a fire in the General Store i will just make due.... those pioneers wore a zagillion layers of clothes for a reason.... i wish i had at least long jones on... but i wont go into detail about that for everyones sake... if you want to know more about the farm check out my list on the right,,,

gotta go tuck the girl into bed. love to you all.

go there and you will be able to see some pictures of Notre Dame de Paris. the reason why i made that comment on your blog of the stained glass window is because alot of Gothic Cathedrals have really amazing stained glass windows,and i was making a connection with that and your very nice stained glass window. :)
