Last day of Winter Field Trip in Rural Canada..

Hello everyone.. 

Just thought you might like to take a little field trip with us as we went for a little drive along some rural country roads here in Eastern Canada on our last day of Winter.. 

The sun was out and beautiful and the temps were not too bad.. 

As you can see we still have a lot of snow and nights are cold.  

You can feel the Spring trying to show it's lovely face but Winter is still holding on very tightly.. smile.. 

We Canadians are used to this type of weather but I think we are yearning for warm winds and bare fields.. 

All in due time I guess.. 

A lot of farm animals were out and enjoying feeding in the afternoon sunshine.. 

My two favorites are in the first picture, of course.. 

You no doubt remember how I would love to have just one donkey.. 

And 3 sheep, 6 chickens, a couple of ducks and geese... 

Oh well.. 

We dropped by and visited with one of Terry's friends and had a great chat with him.. 

He thought we had the life.. 

Driving around in our truck and drinking coffee and taking pictures.. grin.. 

He farms on the side and really enjoys it .. 

I can understand why... smile.. 

The area is beautiful in any season and a drive we take verily often.. 

It was such a treat to see those hundreds of wild ducks in the farmer's corn field.. 

They have been there for ages.. 

I think they are all mixed up about when they should return home.. 

Then we saw a wild peasant.. So pretty.. 

We arrived back home and enjoyed some homemade soup that I found HERE..

We were into the Walmart and they had watercress.. 

I was so excited because the supermarkets here never carry it.. 

The soup was simply delicious.. 

If you can't find watercress then you could use arugula... 

Terry even loved it.. 

Well, that is all for now my friends.. 

I can't help but notice that there is a significant slack not only in the readers but also in us who post the blogs.. 

I think Face Book is taking over people's time instead of blogging.. 

I find it kind of sad as I do not enjoy FB at all and only go on occasionally although dear hubby enjoys it very much.. smile.. 

Thank you so much for your faithfulness in reading and commenting.. 

I enjoy having you and will continue for as long as I keep getting readers and comments, Lord willing.. 

Take care and God bless..
