It's Days Like This......

It's days like this that make you forget about the hard work of moving all that snow around, and trudging through it to get were you need to go. This is our view from our bed room window, and today it's sunny and it makes the snow sparkle, these are the winter days that make you feel better, and give you a new out look on life.
Coal and I took a drive to appreciate this beautiful day. Why do dogs like to stick their heads out of a moving car window at 22 degrees, he loves to, and I get cold. Makes him happy! So we took a drive to the Lower Beaver Creek Rd and took some pics. 

This is the road that my walking buddie and I walk on every day, actually most the time it's at night, because she works. Here are some of the sites we see during the day, and that isn't a strange animal in the picture, well maybe.  

Looking East

What a privilege to see an eagle

Then here we are home again, renewed from the breath taking beauty of it all!

Lonny thinks his yard art is the breath taking beauty here. Well maybe it is, it's in the eye of the guy with the sun in his eye's LOL

Yard Art

Here's a Quilt that I started last Summer, I'm making progress.                                                                                                   

Snow..... a four letter word



Coal



I suppose here in the State of Washington their are people who think snow is a four letter word, we have had lots of snow, mostly on the western side of the state. As of this morning, were I live we have around eight to ten inches, here in the North Central part of the State. This kind of weather we expect here, but in western Wa. not so much. This picture I took this morning, and it hasn't stopped snowing yet, and we are expecting a couple of days more of it.  

As long as Dad keeps a trial going for little Coal we are happy, this is the trail out to the shop, you can see how deep it is, and this is just what we got today.

I Blame Everything on my Computer

I do, do you? Mine is so old and slow, that I could knit a pair of socks, while waiting. The changes in Blogger threw my off so much I thought my blog was for ever lost. I'm not computer savvy, but I can peck my way through most problems, but for some reason, well I just couldn't get it. Then on Face Book, I got the message, and guess what I'm back.
Since my last post, were all the Holidays, all I can say to that now is, good it's over for another year. Yes it was nice to see our parents and our Boys and Grand Daughter, but we are home bodies for sure. We're still looking at the same ole snow that fell before Thanksgiving, it's just been mostly very cold, with an occasional warm day. We have officially have added this wonderfull animal to our home, and have given him his official name, which is Coal, as in "Black as Coal" I knew you would get it. He is Chipped,shots and nuedered. We love him with all our hearts, he's all most perfect for us, I'm saying all most just to leave a little room for what might come up we don't know about.
          
       In my last post, I told you about these " Tool Totes" I was making for my friends, I ended up making nine of them, and by the ninth one I knew what I was doing, they turned out well
