Spring is Here but Snow is Still Falling.

We are having strange weather.  For a few days our temps were in the 50sF so there was lots of melting.
A view of the rushing waters over the boulders hidden below.  Our river is taking on snow melt from further north which from here runs to the open ocean about 12 miles away.

Our waterfall was running pretty full for a few days and the reservoir in the forefront was full to the brim.  

Then we got a couple inches of snow yesterday much to our surprise.  The poor robins that have been hunting over our lawns were out of luck I'm afraid.

As for me, I have been re-reading the Jan Karon series of books.  I haven't read if for some years and a friend got me the first 3 books in the series for my birthday last week.  I am enjoying myself immensely reading them again.  I have forgotten most of what happens so its like reading a brand new series.  One of the joys in my life is reading.
  Another is Britcoms and Brit Mysteries which I get regularly now that I signed up online for Britbox and AcornTV.    Both carry British series and except for maybe one or two, they are different from each site.  Now I do not have to wait for Sat. nites on PBS to watch my Britcoms.  I can watch them anytime.
My third love is my quilt projects.  I can no longer make the large bed quilts due to space and equipment which I lack here in my small retirement apt.  But I can make small items, like artistic door and wall hangings and tote bags and table runners and microwave pads, etc.  Those I can fit easily under my sewing machine and on my small kitchen table.
So one or the other keeps me off the streets every day and quite content.  I always have something to smile about. 
Have a good day.
