Again it seems I have been do busy that I forgot to do my blog. Well, it is that time of year when being indoors allows me the pleasure of writing this blog. I will try to keep up and update things since the last post over the upcoming winter season.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. I am thankful that am able to be here and enjoy the weather and quietude of winter. We are experiencing some high winds, freezing snow and the swaying of the trees. Keeping the birds and other wildlife fed and protected.
The feeders are filled. The peanuts are out. The pond has it's air bubblers on, the fish are content.
I have completed my Christmas Card. Soon it will go to the printers and then arrive in the mail to those on my list.
We traveled to Great Britain again last summer to spend time with our friend Malcolm and his family members. We met the Germans there and we traveled to the Yorkshire countryside and coast. I will place a few photos from our trip below.
We spent time in Whitby, Scarborough and York . The views of the countryside were fantastic. Like traveling to find our own"Escape to the Country". Stepping back into medieval England in York with a walk along the Shambles to the Cathedral. A most pleasurable time. A great thank you to our good friend Malcolm for his organizing and getting us to such wonderful places by auto and train.
