My husband commented on my new desert scene (now below a couple of posts). He said something to the effect of "That's a beautiful photo you put on your blog!" See, I told you so. He thinks dirt is beautiful. Actually it is not nearly as green here as it is in that picture, so yes, that is a nice photo. We have more dirt, and a thick scattering of plastic WalMart bags snagged on the brush. And a much nicer view of the mountains, yay!
I have to admit, it's not all bad living in the desert. The dry air is very nice. We were outside a couple of nights ago and it felt on the verge of chilly. The thermometer said it was only 93 out -- no wonder! The evaporative effect is amazing. And the sunsets are fabulous! And we NEVER have to mow grass or shovel snow or do yard work, except pull a weed out of our rock driveway once in a while. Well, I do miss the yard work a little bit.
And besides that, we love our church family. I thank the Lord for putting us right here in the center of his will. Yep, heat and pressure. Keep it coming. Makes for good diamonds!
You could come pull weeds at my house! I think they are the stame weeds we had in Washington. The root system must be very long!! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is a nice trail running through the middle of that valley. Would make for a nice hike, (or bike ride for that husband of yours)
