Dripping Sap

I've never noticed how drippy the pine cones are, maybe b/c I'm 5'1" and those pine cones are 20' in the air.

Both of my girls love to take pictures. These were taken by my youngest, Beez, who is 9, going on 10 in  a few weeks :) I think she is doing very well with the camera :)

Church Doors

Beautiful Red Doors of a Presbyterian Church.

Many of these churches are about 100 years old.  I wonder about their faith and excitement in building a place to worship. I'm sure they assumed it would still be standing today. That's not a concept our generation thinks about much.... things lasting.

Church Doors

 Can you tell this is Greek Orthodox Catholic. The doors are stunning as is the church itself. I've never been inside of this church. My oldest daughter had a project of driving all around the local towns to take pictures of the doors of churches.

Spring Light!

I haven't been online much lately, mostly because of spring.
Spring cleaning in the house
Spring yard work
Spring clothes (washing & putting winter things away)
And more fun stuff.
It's been fun spending time outside until almost 8pm. I'll try to take some pictures so I have more to write about.
We are eagerly working through school so that we can finish up for the summer by June 12th. We began the school year late because we were waiting for materials and it was our first year with the cyber school. I don't want to push to get done earlier. I think it would be too stressful for both girls.
I am really excited that spring is here, we have alot of projects to do and I'm motivated to get to them all before it gets too hot here in the northeast.
Yesterday I talked to both of my sisters. I needed that. We don't live close to each other and I'm happy yesterday was the day I got to connect with them both.
