Stay at home=Exercising

Spring is coming so early this year; I honestly can't remember spring bursting out this much in March. And, with the "stay at home" reality nowadays, many of our sisters are taking to a daily walk all around our property,even on our Glinodo property across East Lake Rd. down to the lake. They report on the wildlife they are seeing, the first signs of greenery on the trees, buds on flowers and bushes and anything that catches their eye. The last few days the temps got warm enough (over 50) that I could work in our inner courtyard garden--mostly just raking and clearing up after last fall and winter. Here's what I've found"

The primrose near the foyer door are flourishing.
How they survive under the snow is amazing.

This corner will be a spray of iris in a couple weeks. 

A half dozen daffodils just need a day or two more
of warm sun and they are going to pop.

These are the first to open..
sheltered behind some rose bushes.

And my favorite, bleeding hearts!
At least this is what they look like right now!
A couple weeks and they'll be gorgeous.

P.S. Every day from 5:00 -5:30, the half hour before Evening Prayer, we gather in chapel to spend a half hour in quiet prayer for all of the people of our suffering world.
Hoping you and yours are well.
