Chilly here, too. Well, no, it's COLD! Our overnight low was -4, high today may have reached 20, supposed to be at 0 or below (one forecast said -11) for the next couple of nights at least. I'm very glad to have a good supply of firewood! No tree here, maybe just wreaths and lights. Hubby will be doing Santa appearances all over town for the next 3 weeks, starting this coming Saturday with a 5 hour session at the Festival of Trees, and ending on the 23rd, with the last nursing home party.
Meanwhile, the Thanksgiving leftovers are getting kinda thin, so we will be having turkey noodle soup tonight. With homemade noodles, of course! I have one of those hand cranked pasta machines to flatten and cut the dough, which takes nearly all the work out of making noodles, and is fun besides.
Anna and Deb, enjoy the warmth of your winter vacations! It seems to me that it would be a very difficult adjustment to come back home to winter.
This afternoon we have 13 deer bedded down in our pasture like a bunch of cows, and have been seeing bald eagles in our trees. Some of the neighbors cows are having late fall/early spring calves. The eagles do a lot of clean up duty. They're good at following their food sources.
