little gifts at the week's end

In the wee hours of the morning, 1-2 inches of rain.

Happy horses and a donkey full of hugs.

A floral paradise outside my front porch. Petunias, trumpet vines, roses, butterfly bushes, wild muscadine, pokeweed, dandelions, Queen Anne's lace, morning glories.

A charm of finches by the front walk today, who flew up into the sweet gum tree as I went to get the mail, and then followed me down the driveway, flying and chirping from tree to tree.

An exciting new health care partner for humans and horses. More on this in 4-6 weeks.
