small blessings...

ok, so.....despite the power and phone outage...there have been moments of pure bliss......we have taken time to walk the circle or out to the highway and back each day since this craziness began....and while the roar of the chainsaws has been deafening, the intense aroma of newly sawn cedar and pine has been intoxicating.....i have stopped in my tracks more than once to take in the smells.....eau de cold pine....wow....one of my favorite fragrances....
