The cherry tree is blooming. Can you remember that we planted it last spring? The soil is not deep here, you easily dig down to the stony mountain, so Terje was not too sure about planting a fruit tree. Would the roots find enough soil to grow? Obviously they did, at least for now, and the tree stands there lush, growing, blooming. I can't wait to eat the cherries in a few weeks.
With such good lucks with the cherries I was ready to start another adventure. Last week-end I asked Terje: "What about a plum tree? Don't you think Rastarbo would love a plum tree?" He knows me too well now to start arguing against me, and I also believe he saw the charm of a plum tree, at least the charm of eating plums, so after breakfast yesterday we drove over to the island Skardsøya where they have the most charming little garden center. They had several types of plum trees, we decided on one with purple plums, called Opal.
I can't live without dreams, and as soon as the plumtree was planted, I grabbed Terje to drag him over to the terrace. There was something I wanted to show him, something I wanted done. "Don't you think it will be nice with this, and that and this......" I asked. Yes, he agrees with me, but then there is the work, and the time, and the energy doing it...........Being a dreamer like I am, I only see the results, being realistic like Terje is, he sees the way we need to walk to get there.
We are the perfect pair. Dreams and realism walking hand in hand through life.
Now I wonder if we ever get my new dreams created into life.
