Howdy Neighbor!

3/16/2012
Friday was another beautiful day, sunny, and warm enough for a light jacket. After the boys left for school and Maggie and I had our long walk, I returned home to do a bit of gardening. Randell was later in coming home as he had a few meetings to attend. When he arrived, he stopped to talk to me in the front yard and to see what I was up to :o) 


Our neighbors who live in the house across the street, an older couple in their mid to late 70's I would guess, came over to welcome us to Kurvej. Our street is called Kurvej and is pronounced Coo-vi (long i sound). They are the sweetest couple and so happy we have moved in. I have a hard time pronouncing the man's name and wouldn't even attempt to spell it but the woman is Gretta. Both are Danes, but he is a retired German History and language teacher, and used to live in Berlin. Randell loves history, especially the period during WWI-WWII. I know the men will become famous friends. Gretta and I both love the outdoors and gardening, she already loves what I'm doing in the yard and as the weather continues to bring people outdoors, I know we will see much more of each other. I'm looking forward to developing our new friendship...


Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn.
