It would be good for me to post more on this blog. I really don't expect anyone to read this. It's out there on the web, but it is mainly for me.
Stars
I have ducks and quails. Not too many, just eight ducks and six quails. Every morning, I go out around 6:30 AM to let them out of their houses. I take my wagon and head down my driveway to the family memorial garden. Walking down my driveway, I look up at the stars. I really only recognize the Big Dipper. May be I will learn more constellations. Looking up at the stars fills me with awe and makes me fill so insignificant at the same time. I'm lucky that I live somewhere where I can see the stars and am not too affected by light pollution.
It's a lovely walk, even though there are days that I just don't want to do it anymore. I get to the garden and start pulling weeds. I get a wagon-full to feed my ducks some fresh greens.
I walk back over, feed them, and start cleaning their house.
At night, I go out around 7:45 PM to get their feed and water set up, then put them up for the night. Sometimes, I sit by the quail house and look up at those stars again. Such beautiful lights in the sky.
