Family Time at Hummingbird Hill

We love to cook out on Hummingbird Hill.  That is exactly what we did Saturday night.  We grilled (almost burned) hamburgers.  It is so nice to be with the family.  The granddaughters are such a joy.

We also love having a campfire to help with mosquito control and for warmth in the winter.  During football season we set up a projector screen and watch good old Alabama football.  Last year we had a luau for Jimmy's family it was a lot of fun.  So Hummingbird Hill means a lot to us.  I hope you enjoy my ramblings about the "hill" and whatever else is on my mind.

Thanks for letting me share with you.

Why Hummingbird Hill?

There is a very simple answer for that question.  We love hummingbirds.  It is so much fun to watch them.  We eagerly await the arrival of the first one of the season.  That is when we know it is time to put out the feeders and they come in droves.

 Hummingbird Hill has a large variety of birds not just hummingbirds.  It also has a lot of squirrels. Yes, Jimmy feeds them also. I have even spotted a chipmunk and of course rabbits. We have bird feeders and squirrel feeders but only one birdhouse.. Hmmm guess we will have to do something about that.

 We love to sit on the porch and watch the wildlife and enjoy our morning coffee or in the afternoons with a cool drink.

Living simply and loving life,

What is Hummingbird Hill?

What is Hummingbird Hill?

The physical description of Hummingbird Hill is area on the back of our 3 acres under a huge oak tree that has to be more than a hundred years old. 

Here is another shot of the tree.  She is majestic and unfortunately dying.  I think she will be here as long as we are.  She still has a few years left in her.

The area has gone through a lot of changes in the twenty or so years we have owned it.  I will share some of those with you in later post.    

It is also a place where I can go to completely relax.  It is my escape from the everyday worries.  It is a place where I feel my creativity flow.  Most of all its is a place where I can go and sit and just "be".
