It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!



Two days ago, the mountains and field behind my house looked like this.





Later in the evening it looked like this!





This morning.......where are the mountains? Those little brown spots in the field are ducks bedded down under eider down comforters waiting out the storm. I do not have a telephoto lens so you're going to have to trust me. I promise. They are ducks! I'll take photo's of all of their poop when the storm passes to prove it.





The poor sheepies. So ccccold. Good thing they are into knitting. Why the other day I saw several of these ladies sitting out there in the field their needles click clacking away and I knew a storm was coming cuz sheep are always prepared. Just watch the sheep. They'll let you know when a storm is coming.

  2. It's beginning to look alot like Christmas..I have to confess, even though I am a California girl through and through, I do love Snow... when it arrives before Jan. 1st. After that I am back to hating it. I am such a fickle girl.

  3. Once upon a time, the people knew the signs of the weather - they lived outside and they watched the animals, and they knew. Piper has been nearly nuts tonight, whining around the house - we wonder if it's the change in the barometer doing it. And we know when the winter will be early, because the horses beard by the end of August. This year, they didn't, and the fall was fair and long.

    What do the mountains outside your window look like now, i wonder?
