Go Outside and Play!
“I have given you Universes
as fields to run free in!
And here—take this and wrap yourself in it—It’s called:
LOVE
and It will always, always keep you warm.
And stars! The sun and the moon and the stars!
Look upon these often, for they will remind you
of your own light!
And eyes…oh, gaze into the eyes of every Lover.
Gaze into the eyes of every other
for they have given you their Universes
as fields to run free in.
There.
I have given you everything you need.
Now go, go, go outside and play!”

I don't live in South Dakota, but you must see the pace at which this bird moves, she recently spent a few days on our creek, as she was migrating southward, looking for a winter retreat!

IN LOVING MEMORY...
Today we lost our beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and husband of 70 years to his wife Beulah. Oliver Campbell passed away today at the age of 95. A self-made man, a Christian man, who, with a sixth grade education, built his own business from the ground up. Campbell Construction Co. eventually was joined by both his sons. Their contributions to our community and those surrounding us include churches, schools, hospitals, and many of the buildings on Main Street.
Oliver and Beulah had 3 children: Bo, Peggy, and Richard.
They have 4 grandchildren: Bob, Penny, Bart, and John
And three great-grandchildren: Kristen, Coleman, and Webber
He was a kind and loving man. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and
loved him.

Its also one of my favorite flower colors. Standing next to the yellow snapdragon is a very special flower known as "Forget-Me-Not", a favorite among legends of true love...
Leaves that are very bitter used for medicinal purposes including snake bites.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY...
(grown by Sharon)
The fact remains that the birth cycles of all sentient beings are beginningless, and that countless times in previous lives we have each fulfilled the role of a mother. The feeling of a mother for her child is a classic example of love
For the safety, protection, and welfare of her children, a mother is ready to sacrifice her very life. Recognizing this, children should be grateful to their mothers and express their gratitude by performing virtuous deeds.

Narcissus...
Daffodils (narcissi) are a flower of folklore that can predict your luck for the coming year...If the first daffodil of the year is seen with its hanging head turned away from you, you will have a year of good luck! Also, if you are in the business of ducks and geese and you have eggs to hatch, don't bring the daffodils into the house or you will have no luck in the coming years. Wonder if that goes for bad luck, too?
The fragrance of the daffoldil has been used as a relaxant. It is expecially helpful for folks who have trouble winding down brain activity at the end of the day. So for a relaxing evening, go pick some of those daffodils and fill your home with the calming aroma of the daffodil. Aroma therapy at its finest!

A BIRD OF ANCIENT TIMES...
A Woodpecker was sitting high in a tree enjoying a piece of honeycomb. He noticed a toad sitting at the base of the tree looking at the honeycomb wistfully. The woodpecker called down, "Would you like some honeycomb?" and the toad nodded his head eagerly. With this the woodpecker lowered a small basket down for the toad and pulled him up. But just as the toad reached the honeycomb, the woodpecker let go of the basket and the toad landed with a thud on the ground. The little toad was furious at this trickery and began to drink. Soon he had drunk up all the rivers and lakes in the country and there was a severe drought everywhere. The little toad was so happy at his revenge that he began to dance and as he danced, water began to pour out of his body until finally the drought was over. And the moral to this story is...
