There’s a babbling in the brook
Just down the hill.
That sings sweet music to me
As it tumbles ore rock and rill.
There is quiet in the early morning
Before the sun comes into sight.
A rest to our body and soul
When you’ve had a sleepless night.
All the earth waits silently
For the coming of a new day.
Ready to meet the challenge
That is striving to make it’s way.
Life runs on like water
On it’s way down to the sea.
Meeting hurdles to cross over
And teach the way to be.
There can be joy and peace
Like water twinkling in the sun.
Or a stormy time may enter
And darken the way to run.
Every cloud has a silver lining
When it tries to cover the sun.
So we’ll be patiently waiting
And know the race can be won.

The oil substitute that is made from part of the under bark of trees seems to be holding up quite well as a paviing material even with the heavy auto and truck traffic we are getting now on Boon Rd. We have a little deer, It still has some of it's spots so is not a baby and it is grazing on the grass arount our house, It's mama must have fell victom to the hwy 93 traffic that runs between us and the lake below us? My brother Ken and wife Jan from Tucson AZ. and Kino Mexico, have been with us for a week or so in their 5th wheel trailer, they started their return journey home this morning, We will sure miss having them here. Laurie and daughter Lisa left this past Tuesday morning on a trip for a few days to visit daughter Heidi and family who have recently moved to Corvallis OR. they should return next Sunday.
Be sure and drop by if you are in our neighborhood, until next time "Have a Great Day".
