When the Flight For Life helicopter flys down our canyon somebody’s life has changed forever.
In the garden I cry. At times my sadness is like gravity and I cannot move.
My beloved brother. Who served others his entire life.
I held his hand as he took his last breath.
He gave me Irises.

...chickens love digging there.
I had to shovel pounds of yucky pellets. The last pallet reeked of urine (gag).
Then the sun came out and it was 95* in the shade by 10:00. Miss Chia snoozing.
You know she loves her mud.
So ... I was standing basically in the middle of the yard when a Red Tail...

Had lots of reading to do to catch up.
It’s after 9:00pm and I’m...
