We hope this finds you enjoying the spectacular weather this week. We also hope you've been outside enjoying your vitamin D with garden gloves, dirty knees and beautiful flowers in your landscape. As we experience what we TRULY hope is our final cold front, we are in spring mode here x10.
Did you enjoy a beautiful Easter? We did. It's always nice to press pause for a special weekend. We are truly grateful this year for so many things. In the midst of our current circumstances, funny things still happen. I'll share.
As we finished our Easter dinner, Scott walked into the kitchen and picked up his phone. He missed a call. And he says, "Why is the Chatham County Sheriff office calling me on Easter Sunday?" Awesome.
He calls the number to be told they would put a message through to the officer. Again,
awesome
. Five minutes later, an officer calls. God bless her.
Apparently, someone wondered onto the property and decided it would be a good idea to visit the Garden Center while it's closed. This particular someone also thought it would be a great idea to kick in the gate. The shop was locked and they were unable to get in. Thankfully, the house plant babies are good. Critical information. I know, right?
As they wander around briefly,"Oh wait. Is that a golf cart I spy??"
Keep in mind, we were able to see this all on camera footage. The intruder/assailant, or whatever you would like to call him, takes off on the golf cart driving erratically. He rams a perennial table and knocks flower trays on the ground, smashes some pottery, and drives over 4 butterfly bushes. Then, he drives the cart through the new wood fencing breaking the main waterline, bounces over some beautiful blooming Azaleas and off he goes! He drove miles down Highway 751!. All the way to Craig's Market and Gas station. MILES before he was seen and fortunately, quite possibly chased (at 10mph), into the woods behind Craig's.
Yep. We seriously don't make this stuff up. So after getting the irrigation shut down, all the repairs done, and inventory adjusted, we are now driving our bashed in golf cart with a story to tell. So when you see us on the golf cart bouncing around and still smiling, you can smile too.
Are you acting like a wildflower scattering kindness in the wind? We hope so. Come scatter kindness our way and we'll give some back to you. Not only do we still have cheerful smiles, we also have all things green and gorgeous.
Nothing cheers us up quite like the beauty of nature.
