- The martins are back to their apartment houses Gerald had all ready for them. As they create their nests and prepare to please us with a new generation, they are busy swooping and twirping and twittering . I am happy the barn swallows are back dirtying up our front porch with their annual mud and straw nest there. I cut dead branches off the rose bushes, which seemed to tall up over night and are ...

- Last Friday night, the first day of Spring, Gerald and I experienced the awakening as we drove down to Union County amid the white blossoming pear trees, tulip trees already shedding their pink blossoms, yellow forsythia, and golden daffodils in yards and roadsides. We went early to have time before we met his brothers and wives, so he could take me up to Hamburg Hill again in Shawnee National ...

- Yesterday I was privileged to drive into town twice and observe the world turning beautiful. I always take the country road to town if I can, and so twice yesterday I passed by the special roadside filled with blooming daffodils in front of a woods. Every spring I enjoy them and love to wonder who the former resident was who planted them. I was sure long ago there was a house there and the ...

- Gerald has been in self-induced isolation this weekend, and I think he has enjoyed it. He also enjoyed getting out and digging a little in the dirt yesterday after the recent winds have dried up the ground sufficiently that he could do some tractor work. Why has he avoided other people—except on the phone where he has been quite active? (He’s also been having fun checking Facebook.) If ...

- Since University of Georgia softball team was rained out at its tourney at Columbus, they had to come home on Saturday without being able to play a game. Consequently, our weekend softball watching schedule was simplified. This afternoon Gerry said they had already gotten four inches of snow at Athens. Geri Ann had to stay home for a basketball event, but Vickie was in the stands at College ...

- A weekend highlight happened Friday afternoon when our granddaughter Leslie dropped by Woodsong. She was on her way up from Belmont in Nashville, Tennessee, to see two girl friends at the University of Illinois. The next day the three were heading over to Belleville to meet up with the Freeport High School speech team at the state tournament. Today Leslie made the long drive back to ...

- Gerald is back from Georgia and just finished showing me a slide show of the Oconee High School softball team, who are now the state Class AAA champions. He is busy now making some prints of Geri Ann during the game. Gerald came through Nashville a little too early this morning to call Leslie and just kept driving. I was surprised to see the car in the garage when I came home from ...

- At the end of the day, the red clay of Georgia hung heavy on Geri Ann’s white softball uniform Saturday. After four games that day, every player in the tournament should have been hot, dirty, and exhausted. Even those of us who just watched in the blazing sun were eager to get home for a shower and were too tired to go out to eat. Vickie solved our problem by ordering the first ...
