[Gray days with no rain...not good.]
NO, and the cold winter. As I get older the cold really bothers me. But my Yorkie wants out so many times a day and I stay with him as I have no fences and open pasture, and a lot of critters wander through, including a herd of deer, lol.
Not sure if ‘herd’ is the right word.........
Potlatch, I let my yorkie/maltese (’morkie’) out two weeks ago (and was preparing to put the leash on her), when she saw some deer on the property - NOT GOOD!
She took off after the deer before I was able to attach the leash - and was nipping at the heels of the big buck! I was frantic - he could have kicked her and sent her to the rainbow bridge!
So, she now gets the leash attached before I even open the door.
(and yesterday, a man moving stones here, rang my doorbell. Upon opening the door, there he stood, with a baby rattlesnake in his hand!)
He took it a half mile away and flung it out.......but I’m hoping it doesn’t return! (SHUDDER!)
(((((Goodnight, and God Bless)))))
Read: John 4:7-14
In Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is a remarkable natural wonder—a pool about 40 feet deep and 300 feet across that Native Americans called “Kitch-iti-kipi,” or “the big cold water.” Today it is known as The Big Spring. It is fed by underground springs that push more than 10,000 gallons of water a minute through the rocks below and up to the surface. Additionally, the water keeps a constant temperature of 45 degrees Fahrenheit, meaning that even in the brutally cold winters of the Upper Peninsula the pool never freezes. Tourists can enjoy viewing the waters of Big Spring during any season of the year.
When Jesus encountered a woman at Jacob’s well, He talked to her about another source of water that would always satisfy. But He did not speak of a fountain, spring, river, or lake. He said, “Whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life” (John 4:14).
Far greater than any natural spring is the refreshment we have been offered in Christ Himself. We can be satisfied, for Jesus alone, the Water of Life, can quench our thirst. Praise God, for Jesus is the source that never runs dry.
Amen

What a wonderful pic! Happy Friday, MEG!
Thanks trish,
*Grin*...Who is walking who?
I see more snow in the forecast for the upper US.
What a winter!
Are they walking each other? :) It’s adorable.
Yes, more snow is on the way. Our front walk is covered in three inches of ice!
Stay safe! Hate ice...I broke my knee slipping on ice over 40 years ago and still must grab the rail hard when descending stairs.
That must have been agonizing. I hope it’s fully healed.
Thanks, MEG. I will do my best. :)
So sweet, ML. Amen
Prayers for our brave Troops and our nation.
Blessings to all! Enjoy your weekend.
Starting off cool, but supposed to warm up to 79º.
3” of ice?? Stay safe. Stay inside where it’s warm ;)
I’ll try to send some of our TX warmth up your way!
Yes...I feel the cold more now..but also feel the heat more.
I really stay out of excessive heat now, too.
I must go..Busy day calls.
Roller coaster weather isn’t it!
Amen
Blessings to you.
Thanks, Jane! :)
