And so it started to snow. Just a little bit for a long time.
And still it was not cold. Not really cold. Just snowing cold. But quite, quite different from the last few weeks of mild winter.
Not one of the animals changed any of their behaviours. Only the Miss C animal. I did not drive the tractor down the back through the blowing snow with their hay, feeding them in the yards instead and I carried all their water out in buckets but all the birds stayed inside (just for the moment they assured me, until the wind stopped).
Today will be colder but a little more of the same. I hope you have a lovely day.
love celi

The farmy with its bare surrounding trees looks so pretty with that little bit of snow . . . and some of these cow tummies ARE growing at a comfortable rate . . . nice . . .
Lovely isn’t it!
We had a lovely day of sunshine but it was cold. The rain is due back tomorrow, I think it just took a day off. My father often said when talking of the weather that it was to cold to snow. Is the Cow bar sinking? It looks closer to the ground each time I see it. Stay warm Miss c.
Yes, the old hay is rising around it – we will dig it back out in the thaw! c
So, so lucky Miss C. Hot here today. Melbourne weather just perfect, practicing for your visit I’d say.
Unseasonably warm here in Sacramento, California. 72 today. Just nice and mild and keep the door open weather. There is a screen door to keep out the bugs, although I haven’t seen any so far. Went to my daughter’s storage locker today and she pointed out “the biggest cockroach you’ve ever seen” and I took a picture of it. *I* think it’s not a cockroach after all, but a big beetle of sorts. The bug was dead and had been there since she had rented the storage unit. No granddaughter today and my daughter and I had a really good time, even though it entailed moving some boxes. Much love to you allllllllllllllllllllllllllll. Gayle
It looks inexplicably cosy, even in the knowledge that it’s so-so-so cold. I love the way a camera can filter out the hardship if you put your eye to it. It’s all in the believing. We have sun, believe it or not. Lovely blue sky and a rock hard frost. xx
The photograph of the trees is haunting. They seem angry. Or frightened. The house looks lonely. You caught cold. Well.
