Being thankful



This puts everything into a different light. Take a moment and really think about it.

Gratuitous photos,snow buntings and sriracha

Yep we had the "big storm". A whole 2-3 inches worth. But it did bring in some snow buntings, shook a lot of people up and made things white.  At least it's prettier than the current round of financial news.


It continues to be quiet here in the western mountains. I watched 3 deer walk across the field last night, right at sunset. Shoveled snow today, waiting to watch the rest of it melt.  No I won't post pictures of the snow, that can wait, we'll have enough of that this winter.  Trust me, you can wait.

Sriracha! Ah you glorious sauce!  Elixir of the gods, I need another bottle soon.

Partridge in a popple tree



Ruffed Grouse are called "partridge" here in Maine.  A popple is an  aspen. Luckily using the binomials anybody can figure out what I'm talking about.  So the above photos would be captioned thus, " A Bonasa  umbellus  in a Populus tremuloides.


Yeah, not much is or has been happening. It's been quiet. Tomorrow night we are supposed to get snow. Maybe a dusting (here) to maybe 6 inches along the coast.  Yeah, well, we shall see.
