Vineyard

This photo was taken out the car window as

we slowly made our way to I-5.  This main freeway

had been closed for about 90 minutes while the 

plows did their job. We managed to get home 

after several hours of slowly driving 70 miles 

and going over two mountain passes.

I-5 is the main arterial for the west coast going

from B.C. Canada all the way down south to Mexico.



Blizzard

24 hours later it is still snowing and blowing gusts

up to 50-70 mph. Our first real taste of winter as

last winter was pretty mild. The snow drifts are amazing.

Word #354

Mysterious

What is making this shadow on

Grandmother's cactus plant?

Aha- Grandmother's cruet holder.

They aren't used as much now as in the past.



Word #352 and 353

Biped and quadruped

Me shoveling off our long driveway

coming across squirrel tracks.

Russell and I took a walk down the power line

 to see if we could find other tracks- only deer.

I think the bears are snoozing at the moment.

Stalking?

Seeing as to how snow filled the fox prints are

versus the gray squirrel prints- I doubt the

fox was after this particular squirrel.... 

Word #351

Mourn

My heart breaks for innocence lost.

~~~~~~~

Dark days are ahead until we take responsibility

for raising our children in a safer and saner world.

That is the ultimate gift .

Instructions

Our contractor would always leave important notes to self

right on the framing etc....

Results

And the results were that most things were

done correctly the first time....

He had a rather large memo pad.

This is our almost finished Art Hall leading

to our master bedroom and bath.

The sliding door was made by a friend who

framed the African piece we had found in Portland.



Word #346

Traditions

Our little trees usually come out right after

Thanksgiving. This year they are a little late

as I had to unpack them from their boxes still in the garage.

Our home is quite Christmassy now!

      Cat with Laundry

        December 7, 2012  

    

Cats truly do have attentive staff.

Lackadaisical

Cats don't do windows

Never raising their paws

They recline on pillows

And scratch with their claws

With their little stomping feet

Threatening a devilish trick

They demand their treat

And make it quick!
