A Break for Some Sun

We will get back to the Veteran's Home for part two, tomorrow. 


We have had three beautiful, sunny days, when a week ago, 
we were predicted to have a foot of snow. 

On the beautiful days, the birds go elsewhere to eat, pretty much. 

However, we have a nice feeding area now. 
Son Jim, Jax and Jacob came over Sunday to help me. 


Here is the feeding area now... a nyger feeder and a hanging feeder on 
the near pole, and then a suet cake, and a seed/suet feeder on the pole closer to the patio. 
I am going to clean the patio up over the next two weeks, and Jacob will come and help. 


Looking out from the doorway at the garden/pond/feeding area.  


We had a lot of wind last night, and quite a bit of rain (and I forgot to get the bucket out of the picture), and the little pond is "full" again.  It has been frozen for a few weeks. 


The iris I bought from Comanche Acres last fall are looking good. .  I can't wait to see them 
up.  

I need to clean this garden area up very well, and I have an edging shovel that Jacob will be using. 
  

We saw these two big boys at a stable up the street from us as we came home Sunday.  I know everyone is ready for fresh, green grass! 

Tomorrow we will show the rest of our walk through the National Cemetery.
