Evening

Last evening, we decided to eat our supper, yes - I am from the country and say supper, out on the deck. It was a very pleasant evening with a soft breeze coming out of the North.
My husband had cooked the meat and vegetables on the grill so we didn't have to heat up the house.
Our patio set was one of the things that I had just refurbished and this was the first that we had been able to put it to use.
We had just settled in our chairs and were admiring the sunset when we heard the Amish neighbors across the field playing out in their yard. We couldn't see them because of the crops in the fields and the forest between us, but we could hear the children laughing and it sounded very sweet.
Out of the blue, one of them started to yodel. We stopped our eating and conversation and just listened to the wonderful music floating in across the way. It really did make a lovely end to our hectic day.
