SPRING by J.J. Proctor


Light upon the wild-flowers dawning from on high!
Light upon the white clouds floating in the sky!
Light upon the green fields, light upon the rill!
Happy morn is breaking o'er each lofty hill.

Music in the rustling of the summer trees!
Music in the many tones that sweep along the breeze!
Music in the little birds that haunt the budding spray!
Winter's snows are melting--Spring is on its way.

Gladness in the mountains! gladness in the plains!
Gladness in all nature, bursting from her chains!
Gladness in the waters, rippling down their streams!
Heaven and earth rejoicing in the sun's bright beams.

Happy, happy spring-time! Happy age of youth!
Rich in aspirations, rich in love and truth!
Use it well, lest summer scorch ye with its sun,
And your budding beauties droop, ere yet begun.

Random Exploits!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts.

In Fernie town we tend to take our time with things. For example, crossing the road can be a leisurely, social thing if you take your time and smile, nod, wave and chat to the drivers. And why not hang out at Overwaitea (Fernie's IGA). It's quite the social place really. Who wouldn't wanna have a long winded gossip over a nice bulk bin of Lindt chocolates?

Ahhh, so times are good. Chillin, enjoying the sun, hitting the slopes at whim and arriving at work in your ski gear. Hangin' with me ladies in the office, drinking beer and Curling in the eve, then off to the pub. Maybe catch a hockey game at some stage. Rocky Mountain Caramel Popcorn, Poutine, Timmy's with a doughnut, sushi and then some nice wine at Picnic with my awesome buddies ;)

I don't think life gets much better than this. Sorry dudes, but I ain't gonna be back for a bit xoxox
