The house in the upper right corner of the photo is our cultural center, “Tio14“, where we attend concerts and enjoy the theatre. I am grateful that our small town have an active cultural scene. We have…

Today I am grateful for the endless possibilities ahead of me this upcoming gardening season. In a garden the saying “Imagination is the only limits” is very true. Imagining how I want my garden this year fills me with gratitude considering all the possibilities. As the snow keeps falling I enjoy planning for a bountiful…
