We've started to define the trails in the woods!
That makes us officially Trail Blazers! Hahaha
I took my first walk to the end of the property (after all winter) on the weekend and I was considering napping on a rock 1/2 way, I was so pooped! Talk about a workout! All the dogs and I (of course), I don't go anywhere on this property without my entourage & they stay with me, when I stand and just stare at all this beauty, birds, bush - & NO bugs! It was a little too early, needless to say it didn’t take long for the little suckers to appear the next few days.
I have a new name for Ginger my chunky monkey - Log Dog. Although heavy she sure keeps up with us and the mission this year is to have her lose 10 lbs!!! She is easily 20. Poppy is just content being’… being with me. Arrow is my shadow, what a blessing she is & now B0w follows us too! I’ve trained Arrow to “GO GET BOW!” When I notice Bow becoming distracted or going in a direction we are not, Arrow ‘realigns Bow by pouncing and saying ‘Hey! Come this way!’ And chases him in the direction she wants him to go. I notice the chickens and thought .. if they were free I bet they would follow me, imagine that - Chickens Walking the woods! Goals.
There is always work to do… no excuses for being bored, Storm was up and he & Norm spend days in the woods cutting, cleaning, and removing dead trees - no cutting healthy trees - so the trails are a little winding. They enjoy it! They also sleep better - hahaha. It’s hard not to enjoy’ when aware what you accomplish & replenish is also HEAT for the home.. we will never run out of trees for fuel just from the dead ones. I’m elated to have trails to walk, I can smell the mushrooms getting ready to explode! My mouth watering -I know where they are already, choice specimens and I’m drooling! I feel good… eating healthy, walking the woods, sitting listening to nothing but birds for hours on end has gotten easier with each season, but being loved by my constant companions - always ready to slip me a slobbery kiss - Makes it pure bliss.
I can’t wait to walk the trails with some friends, finally!
The journey is better when shared with others who can do more than bark at butterflies, sometimes. Hee hee
If you are visiting me - bring your hiking boots and mosquito protection because we’re walking in the woods! YAY!!
When I’m out and about - one thing is always on my mind:
Thank You, Lord. All paths lead to him, Amen.
