A Reunification Plan

Cherry Blossom Globe

I have been living life in a cherry blossom globe. 

The cottony flowers soften the menacing challenges

and send encouragement as ogres are faced.  

A few times the globe was shaken and petals fell, but in doing so created a beautiful swirl.  

We are not totally out of the woods, but they are subdued.  The sweet spring air surrounds and we can freely enjoy the cozy array of blossoms.

Now the time has come to depart from this flowery cocoon of restoration- I hear the jasmine calling from the other side of the country, and geraniums beckoning from their window boxes on the other side of the world.  But I will not forget my weeks here and will always treasure our time in the Cherry Blossom Globe.

Good-Bye Eaves Drop House

There is much that will be missed as we move our lives out of potato country.  True friends impacted our lives and we will treasure these relationships despite geographical differences.  A charming house made a delightful home, and the spider alarms definitely kept the elephants away.  (We will see if they accomplish this successfully in our new place.)  And so we bid Boise adieu and welcome all visitors to the beach where yurts may or may not be provided.
