more snow

the snow from 4 days ago brought down a large oak tree and staal and i (nick got a few licks in too) spent a few days tromping around in the melting snow getting it cut up and cleared away. 

 

last night we got some heavy rain followed by a couple inches of light, powdery snowfall early this morning...

down the road

it's been a very dry winter.  happy to have some snowfall overnight and this morning.  we'll see what's down the road for spring.

falling (the best we can do)

 

when we are very young

and first learning to walk

mostly we fall down

this is the best we can do

but

falling isn't failing

if

each time we fall

we get back up

and try again

and so we take another step

or two

and we fall again

and again

we get back up

and we grow 

as we walk on

and sometimes 

we stumble

and sometimes 

the path is full of obstacles

that trip us up

and still

mostly we fall down

and still

this is the best we can do

and one day

we learn

that walking

is

falling

that with each step forward

we fall

and we catch ourselves

over and over

and this 

is the best we can do
