Home Sweet Home

As we were traveling through Northeast Arkansas, we passed through a valley when, all of a sudden, we ran into a cloud of bugs. The bugs began splattering all over our new clean windshield! We drove through that cloud of bugs for only about a minute, maybe a mile or so, and that was the end of it. I didn't realize how many bugs we drove through until we got home and I had an opportunity to look at the front of "The Bus" covered with big black bugs . . . and that's the only place we ran into bugs. Arkansas is sure 'buggy' in spots!





We pulled into our driveway in Morning Deer Valley at about 3:00 PM Thursday. It was a little bit of a shock. After spending the Winter in The Valley in Texas, where everything was green and the flowers were in bloom, then spending a little time in Alabama where 'Spring had Sprung', we were surprised that Spring had not yet arrived in Kansas. The pictures below are of our front yard and back yard . . . the trees don't even have any leaves yet!

















What a shock! We expected Spring to already be here . . . but I guess we will have the opportunity to see Spring arrive with all of the trees in bud and in bloom. Now, that's something to look forward too.

But it is nice to be home . . . "Home Sweet Home".
