A Cold Beautiful Sunrise


Another cold morning; the low hit 9 degrees. But as this arctic cold front lingers over our region, it is also keeping the storms away. With such clear skies, each morning and evening we have been treated to beautiful sunrises and sunsets.


Somehow the pink is even prettier set against all of the white snow still on the ground and in the trees.And speaking of snow....our poor little conifer down by the main gate, that we decorated with lights, is completely covered in a dome of powder! It actually looks pretty cool at night!

December Sunrise


As I was walking out to my car this morning, a flash of pink caught my eye. I managed to grab my camera and capture the tail end of an amazing December sunrise.

Christmas Day


Christmas Day dawned with a dramatic Eastern sky.


I am not a morning person by any means but was so thankful to be up to witness this sunrise. What a Christmas morning gift!


First thing we checked the stocking to see what Santa-paws might have delivered. New cat-nip mice for everyone!


Solomon says please leave me alone - I'm busy here!


Padma was in heaven. Nothing like a 20 pound cat in drug-induced joy!


As I set the Christmas table, this female Hairy Woodpecker was having her Christmas lunch at the peanut feeder.


Just after 4 PM we at down to dinner with Family.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!


I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

Out of the Darkness


We came out of the longest night of the year with an awe-inspiring sunrise this morning. The whole Eastern sky was various shades of pink and yellow as I stepped outside at a little after 7:30 AM. A beautiful start to our shortest day of the year. Happy first day of Winter!
