You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. some may be significant only to you. some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience. - President Hinckley

The sound of water

Water has to be one of the most soothing sounds that nature makes. In our new backyard it has been landscaped with a pond and little stream thing that flows into that pond. There is a small bubbler that comes from a rock and flows to the stream and ultimately the pond. The waterfall at the pond is gorgeous! I could sit out there all day and listen to it. Last week Travis put 3 bass in the pond at around 6 in the evening. We got up the next day and looked for those little things all dy - they were no where to be found...we think maybe a bird or a little varmit of some kind took off with them. So, we are going to try again and put a net under a portion of the water so that other living things can't take the fish away. In the meantime, I still enjoy the sound of water.

WOW! you 've been a busy little blogger! I love that back yard, and it will be lovely to come and sit there with you and your kids and my kids and your hubby, and I'll be missing my hubby... and we will sit and listen to the water, and laugh and talk... and if the water really gets to us we will likely wet our pants.... oh, who am I kidding! We can do that w/o the sound of water!!!
