Sundays on Sutcliffe

May 1st, 2011

It begins again!
 Each Spring we reclaim the homestead from the 
onslaught of the previous Winter.  
 I rake and rake and rake.  Returning the gravel back to the driveway 
is the most challenging, physically and mentally. 
A walking meditation.

 The gentle raking of twigs and branches under the pines is a loving act.  Refreshing and renewing.
 Today even the Garden loft/Garage gets a shake out.  Empty it all out.  Rediscover toys not seen in a few months 
and resolve to scrub them all down tomorrow.
A thing of beauty.
Daffodils establishing themselves along our
sweet, old, wrought iron fence. 
So delicate.
