Have you ever played Pick Up Sticks?
I haven't played it for a long time.
It is very simple, easy to play
especially if you have great eye hand coordination.
Today I discovered a new Pick Up Sticks version.
While Jack read the paper and
Snickers snoozed in the sun
I went outdoors to enjoy a beautiful blue sky day.
During the winter, well, let me correct that,
not much winter has been happening around here.
In the past few months
I have gathered sticks
from the lawn and
placed them near the fire pit.
In the past few days we have had a siege
of strong winds,
thus sticks and branches everywhere.
So guess what, I played Pick Up Sticks today.
I loved
being out in the
fresh air
sunny day
and
frankly
I like projects
and totally enjoyed
accomplishing
some of the spring clean up.
The fire pit managed to get a work out
as I burned several very large
piles of sticks, branches and small logs.
I was also able check to see
if any of my favorite plants
were peeking up through the ground.
It seems so early for things to be showing themselves.
I saw the first green of poppies, hyacinths and usually my first to bloom,
anemone, or more commonly called, wind flower.

Today's weather was fabulous.
Let's hope frosty days
won't come our way
to freeze the buds and flowers
from our fast emerging plants
Snickers is hoping spring is here to stay!
Visit my friend Misha at her
front porch in the mountains
and take a peek at her
horse, dog, cat kids.
She has a fun giveaway
for the lucky person.
enjoy a fabulous week
TTFN
