We are in the middle of our beautiful Colorado winter. It has now been snowing all week long pretty much non-stop. It's a quiet time now for us as we only have the goats and chickens to take care of. The green house is now frozen and hopefully it will kill all the white flies that were in there right before Christmas.
Winter is a reflection time for us here, we spend the days reviewing just how blessed we were this last season. Taking the time to see what went right and what went wrong and on ways we can improve our little piece of Heaven on earth. It seems the seasons go and come for us so fast when you live by them. Before you know it I am getting ready to order seeds and we have already plotted out some of our planting areas. We decided this year we are going to add more raised beds outside the green house as these are easier for us to manage.
As the days now grow longer, I think my quiet time will soon come to an end. I am so fortunate in what I have been blessed with. The time to work hard and the ability to do it and then the time to take a rest and allow my soul to spend time in some quiet reflection. I firmly believe we really need this time and I am so thankful I have it. As winter has it's firm grip on my land I am happy to enjoy the thoughts and musings of spring.
