we came back to survey our own place.
We went snowshoeing to see the winter damage, mostly that wrought by the beavers. They chomped down several birch trees that had been protected by cages only the snow is so deep (three feet still in places) that they were able to gnaw the trees down. Zut alors.
In my brief tour outside, look what I found!
These day lilies are right up against the house on a southern exposure. It will be a while before the snowdrops can come up because there still is way too much white stuff on the ground.
This entry is total fluff because it's a Saturday night and I need to polish my sermon and get to bed at a decent hour. More intellectual thoughts must await another time (if there ever be any here....!).
Meanwhile, iTunes shuffle gives me a little Tinariwen to close up the night.

The beavers ate the trees? Sheesh. Nature.
I too must head off to bed; no lofty matters like a decent sermon (although my inner preacher longs to go off about Emmaus, maybe on the churchy blog!), but I have the honored position of going to 7.30am Eucharist to give a brief talk about our newly forming social group.
Sleep is needed. Emmaus would be much better.
