Interesting Evening

 Last night about 11:30 p.m. I took the pups out for their last walk. The night was different. Quiet you could hear different sounds if you really listened. The breeze was warm and pine needles were falling from the trees, the ice melting from the roofs and the snow actually melting away. Rosie stealthy walking with here nose in the air, catching every scent possible. As we neared the rear of the yard the owl, her characteristic  cry.  Amazing how we both stood and listened like there was nothing around to disturb  us. 
 This morning lot of the snow was gone and we were both back to reality. As they saying goes a day makes a difference its true.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Welcome to 2013. The sun is out very bright making a pretty snow covered landscape. Yesterday took the snowblower out into the yard and make some walking trails for the dogs and to the greenhouse. Put the new thermometer in and it was in the high 40's. Not too awful much going on outside yet, just keeping up with the snow we have. It snowed last week more than we received all last winter. Hopefully we'll get a January thaw. Then its off to the wood pile to do some cutting and splitting before I get busy with growing transplants. Not to much else going on. I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday season.  Happy New Year to you all.  A few pictures to put you in the winter season here in central New York.
