Here in the woods today we are experiencing some rather high winds. This isn't a new phenomena for us but rather the usual in the past year. We refer to our home as "The Land of the Dancing Trees". We sat this morning enjoying our coffee as the trees were swaying back and forth. This dancing sometimes causes a branch of two to fall. As we read the weather warnings for today we saw they were advising us not to walk in the woods due to the potential of falling branches. Of course we had no desire to go walking today as the windchill was causing temperatures we really didn't want to venture into.
The birds were glad that we had turned on the bird spa. This little heated dish gives them the opportunity to have a source for water. I did venture to the mail box with someletters to post so on the way back I checked the pond. The fish were in their suspended state floating at a stand still near the aerator. This is our first year wintering fish and the directions were that they could survive the cold with the depth of our pond as long as there was oxygen being supplied to the water. Our aerators keep the pond open most of the winter. We are hoping this was accurate information gleaned from the internet.
Today's flash back cards shows the addition of another grandchild. Now there are four. Christmas just kept getting more and more fun. This fourth one is now in High School and has the most infectious happiest way of making everything seem a lot more fun.
Checking the List - is your mane there. |
Flying with the wind today would be exhilarating, against it painfully slow. |
Here is a song I hope it warms your heart today,
