had a delightful afternoon reading and watching my feathered friends at the window feeder…

I was reminded of the quote on yesterday’s Christmas card:

“The joy of retirement comes in those everyday pursuits that embrace the joy of life.” ~ Byron Pulsifer

having the time and space to just sit and watch the birds, and read in between their visits, was and is a real gift…

and the beauty of the House Finch couple made me happy…

after the busy day yesterday with the boys here, today I spent a fabulous time in the garden…

the grass is beautifully manicured and the sound is quite wonderful… the waterfall looks great and I am so happy to have it running at full capacity again thanks to my son-in-law… even the rocks have been placed perfectly to cover the new pump…

the pump in the bathtub pond looks and sounds lovely as well… it was a little cool but the wind wasn’t blowing so it felt calm…

to top things off, a house finch couple stopped by for lunch…

because I am not leaving the house, this time in the garden is even more special and I am enjoyed reading and listening to the sounds in the garden…

what a blessing retirement is proving to be…
