Life here in the Kuna Country is good. All our neighbors are starting their family anew. The grass is turning green, the tulips have started their way up through the long frozen earth. The snow has melted away from this valley and is still heavy in the mountains. The skiers are still enjoying the spring skiing up on Shaefer Mountain. Our reservours are filling with the water from the mountain snows. I see the water running in our big canals, seems early to me. My best friend and husband is out in the house garden rototilling. The earth has not quite warmed up yet, but we are getting ready for the planting. The robins are here, the finches have come back, the hundreds and hundreds of ducks and geese race in circles across our street above an old corn field before they land and feed. The duck racing is such a mystery to me. Around and around they go, it happens every night at 6 pm. Life here in the country is slow and is good.
