July?

Where is the time going? This year is half over!!! I can't believe it. It's true...the older we get the faster time goes. Jerry just came in from getting the newspaper and said he saw a family of wild turkeys by our second driveway! I've been hearing turkeys but haven't seen any. I'm reminded of 9 years ago, our first year in our new house, we had 13 turkeys roosting in our trees right beside our house every night. There were three adults and 11 youngsters. We could almost set our clocks by them coming up our driveway every day at 5:30. They would wander around eating whatever and then about 7:00 they would fly up into the trees on the west side of our house and settle in for the night! It was so fun to watch them. My mom and dad came to visit that fall and they were delightfully entertained by the turkeys! They are very messy but thank goodness we live in the woods so we weren't bothered too much. I marvel at God's creation and praise Him because He is our Creator!
