Thankfulness Thursday

Its Thankfulness Thursday today, and I am so thankful for Spring.  We were supposed to have a storm but instead we have sunshine and clouds. I will take that any day. There are lots of signs of spring here.

I have been down walking by the Snake River and its been quite pretty.

This Canadian goose and a pair of Mallard ducks were enjoying the weather too.

The snow is melting fast. I loved this little droplet I managed to photograph.

My old ewe Gabrielle has come out of her shed to sit in the sun too!

One of the neatest thing we have is a pair of eagles that are nesting nearby. They have taken over an old Osprey nest.

You can see one eagle on the nest and another lower on the right. Unfortunately the nest is located right near a fishing access where there is quite a bit of traffic and we think the eagles will eventually move their nest.  In the meantime I am enjoying seeing them.

Thankfullness Thursday

I thought I would join in with this group today. My friend Kim posts about this every week. Today I am thankful for all the writers, actors, directors who make wonderful movies. They really lifted me up this week and I am so grateful for their efforts to make good movies with engaging stories that lift the human spirit. I rented a few this past weekend and finally got around to watching them all.

First there was this one which was truly delightful. I remember Julia Child from when I was a kid and I learned so much about her life that I didn't know. I have this desire to grab her book and try some new recipes now. What a delight this movie is.
