Snow cats

Tuesday 5th January Monday's snowfall was a mere flurry by comparison to last month's storm that buried these plants and crept up the window. Just the right amount to be really pretty and not a pain. Although our "snowman" who apparently is a one-man operation, did not seem at all pleased! Grant may find himself … Continue reading Snow cats →

Bye bye 2020

Dawn, 30th December Dark clouds moved in early, yesterday. Dissipating the loveliness of dawn and bringing sleet and freezing rain late last night. . It was as if that cloud swallowed up the sun. Leaving us with a grey old day. Not such a pretty picture for New Year's Eve. A bump of snow remains … Continue reading Bye bye 2020 →

Aviators

This sky was something of a surprise this morning. I didn't expect to see crisscrossed contrails again any time soon. Is this progress? Who knows. There is a definite sense of "every man for himself". So, I plan to be careful and see what develops. Not much else I can do. ************ You know those … Continue reading Aviators →

Oh snow!

Just before I retired last night, I saw a newsflash. Mostly, these days I don't pay attention to those things, because I can't believe a single thing I hear or read anymore from the media. I'm sure some still try to relay the truth, but who knows if they are even able to unravel it. … Continue reading Oh snow! →

Wild things

Our bright morning, yesterday, turned into a rainy afternoon, then as it was growing dusk, I was drawn outside by the light, and by the wild and wonderful sky. I never grow tired of it. Nor the sound of night creatures singing their tunes. Frogs and cicadas, I suppose. The night before, we brought in … Continue reading Wild things →

Not knowing…

Birds in the apple tree 25th March 2020 My family and my group of friends is very small, so I have been able to check up on them by email to ensure that they are safe. Well, as safe as is possible under these very strange circumstances. If there is one that I worry about, … Continue reading Not knowing… →

Spring in Cambridge

Then this happened When I went outside this morning to capture shots of glorious Spring in Washington County (NY), the birds were still singing their gay Springtime tune, but not long after they were back sitting on their bush glaring at us through the window. "WTF is THIS?" they said. They are very rude birds. … Continue reading Spring in Cambridge →

Getting beat up

Last time I was asked by a nurse at the medical centre if I feel safe at home, I replied that I was starting to feel battered by my cats. Yesterday they were behaving like horrible little toads. I don't know what gets into them sometimes. Spatting and arguing. And other unmentionable things. I guess … Continue reading Getting beat up →

21st Century procedures

A couple of days ago I suddenly realized "oh damn...a filling fell out of my tooth." Being a person who does not tend to procrastinate over things of that nature, I looked in my date book to confirm that I had a dental appointment penned in for May and decided to bring it forward. So … Continue reading 21st Century procedures →
