Channah, I just love being in the outdoors =) I'm a nature girl at heart and find great delight and peace in it.

Maggie - we would do a nature swap. Let's wait until the weather warms up. Sometimes after the thaw we find small fossils in our yard. (We're near a quarry - I forget the stone that our house sits on)

I love walking and going to grandchildrens sports events and just out seeing the neigbors. Sitting around with all of them and chatting. It's surprising the different directions the visits will take. My most favorite thing to do is sit in the shade with a cool glass of tea, my book and just relax. That is one place that I can let my mind just wonder and a wonderful place to finally get answers to things that have been on my mind. It's kind of like my little place in heaven! God and I have had many, many visits out there under the shade tree!

Blessings, Brenda

Channah, I think your idea is wonderful. I don't know how it would work, but what I think would be neat is to have a list and all of us send something to each person...just going down the list of people. Maybe starting off with the next person on the list and then ending with the person right before us. I live in Deer Park, (Eastern WA state) and I would even like a little baggie of each person's garden dirt to place in my flower garden, so that I have a spot for each. I might have a daisy growing up surrounded by Maryland dirt, and put some New York dirt around my lilac, or some Texas dirt surrounding a rose. Dirt has always been a big part of my life. That may be stupid, but it is something I would like.

Deb, that would be fun! I agree that we should wait till the spring. How fun!!

Claudia, I love your idea!! Dirt sounds wonderful!! The only places I have been is CA, NM, and here. YAY! It can be small, maybe like a cool rock, etc.

Hugs,
Channah

The nature center that we go to asked everyone to bring them sand from their travels last year. They received sand from all over the world! They put it in vials and have it displayed under glass in a "coffee table" it's all nicely labeled. I told hubby that I want a glass coffee table so I could do the same with all my nature collections!

We collect everything on our travels. Sand, shells, rocks, feathers, pinecones, interesting sticks, bones, you name it!

I imagine dirt would look pretty neat in vials as well!

I just like being outside and reading. I also like canoeing and fishing. Wow, I haven't been fishing in forever! Maybe once summer comes I'll ask my Nanu to take me. I used to love fishing.
God's Blessings,

Hey Channah,

I love hiking and camping. Fishing is okay and I want to go through Hunter's Safety this year so I can go hunting with my honey

Cindy and N@n I'm with you. I go treasure hunting...rocks, feathers, neat designs in the clouds, a sprout, a bug, anything and everything. I have a teeny tiny cramped house, but we bear with it because it comes with a large lot (for the city) because I'm required to live within the city limits for work. I couldn't bear a teeny-tiny yard!

I went camping for the first time last summer with my best friend and our 8 year old sons. It was glorious!!! When I read the posts from folks that describe their land (vs. my "yard") it gets me dreamin'! Keep describing ladies, it gets some of us through the day.

Prayer costs nothing, but is worth the most.
