A
cold and beautiful and entertaining day at the Acres. I took my walk
early before the Arctic weather got here, the "To Build a Fire" cold.
Lovely time of day. The birds are here by the hundreds. I guess the
cold didn't get them. Homesteader is busy entertaining us all. She
sits in the green chair or "hides" behind it until there are thirty or
more birds on the ground feeding and then her catness
gets the best of her and she charges the window. She's excited, the
birds fly--momentarily--and I get to laugh at her persistence and joy
and, alas, disappointment. Back behind the chair she goes. Good
exercise I suppose.
Bonnie and Gus were out frolicking early this
morning as I traversed the front of the property. They love snow! Gus
has since disappeared; inside I hope since he's not as fur endowed as
Bonnie. She, meanwhile, has been around and about all morning. Walking
around the pond and bog. Sitting taking everything in. Moving in and
out of the trees. Quite content in her winter wonderland.
The only
problem I have is that my car is frozen shut. Don't know how that will
work out. I guess the school can send out a limo to pick me up once we
have school again. It's only a tad over fifty miles. I guess I could
get up early and run a double marathon. Or maybe someone has a tandem
bike with snow tires? I'll worry about that when the time comes. Stay
warm out their folks!
