With the weather turning colder,
the sandhill cranes are migrating further south.

Frosty Mornings

Christmas is over & flu season arrived.
I was under the weather for a few days but finally felt well enough to venture outside.
The weather is turning much colder and we've had some frosty mornings.





It won't be long before winter arrives.

Freezing Up

Below freezing nights are causing the creek to form ice sculptures.

The Wonder of Christmas

Part of my Christmas decor includes a miniature house with reindeer that run around it.


The grandkids think its delightful.

Christmas Fern

Christmas ferns stay green all winter and the leaves are shaped like tiny stockings.

Working on a New Space

I noticed lots of woods chips near the trail, 
then discovered this new hole.
Probably a pileated woodpecker working on a new space.

Blending In

The deer have grown new winter coats and they blend in with the bark on the trees.

Starting Them Early

Youngest grandson, Maverick, has seen me riding and working the horses.
After overcoming his initial fear of the huge animals,
he has actually ridden.

And enjoyed it.


He's an astute observer and enjoys putting the horses in the barn, 
just like grandma.

But he loves doing fencing, setting up different arrangements
 of fencing and checking out how it works. 
A true cowboy in the making.
