Let sleeping dogs lie. That’s what I’m thinking as I look at Latte snuggled next to me. She is flexing her toes and readjusting herself from being curled up into a basketball to stretching like an archer’s bow. Java is curled up next to Steve on the loveseat. She appears to be enjoying the blanket…
“Evolution is a funny thing, developing defense mechanisms that work solely on the element of surprise. Case study: when I was 7, Scott Haley and I caught a lizard in his backyard.

The great thing and the hard thing is to stick to things when you have outlived the first interest, and not yet got the second, which comes with a sort of mastery. — Janet Erskine Stuart Did I ever mention how impatient I am? I start out things with great enthusiasm, but my excitement wanes when I…
Saturday, walking the woods and fields behind the library. Reaching the corn field, it looks like a tractor recently came through and plowed under the standing stalks. Rock-sized clods of black dirt lie in a wake of tire marks, segregating the field like waves on an ocean. A few geese stand, looking perplexed at the…

Sue – Ah yes little grasshopper..
Zoma – Thanks. Things get so white and bright with the snow! (Well, and a big aperature…)
Dream Valley – I can feel another post coming on about that, hopefully with a funnier angle.
Beautiful photos. The geese, the dogs, and the world!!!
What gorgeous soft colours – I can feel the silence of the snow.

I love it…”the silence of the snow”!!!
The photos tell the story but I just have to wonder what your Coffee Shoppe Dogies are thinkin’? They look intent!
God bless and have a marvelous day.
We too have snow…slicker than snot on a frozen glass doorknob out there!
Oh…I just love coming along with you for your winter walk!
I love the simplicity of your words. They make me want to toss out my to-dos and head outside to wander and wonder.
