“God Was Painting”

Boonies, Farm

My visiting writer friend’s daughter, with the mischievous Desdemona.

We had a great weekend. You?

My favorite quote from this weekend was my writer friend’s daughter’s comment about wild, wonderful West Virginia. She thought it was so beautiful here, she said, “God was painting when he made West Virginia.” :heart:


Saturday, 14 and 16 got busy putting down the fabric in preparation for rocking the driveway, after they got done talking me up two dollars an hour on their pay and trying to convince me they’d started at 8 am when we didn’t even drive out there till after noon.
:fryingpan:

While they were working, Princess, one of her schoolfriends, and my writer friend’s daughter were at the swimming hole in the river…..


….rope-swinging….


….splashing….


….rafting….


….fishing….


….tadpole-hunting….


….and crawdad-catching.


But don’t worry, 14 and 16 got their chance when the work was done!
