Wow, got up early today and started messing around with my wood before the crack of dawn. First, I split huge stumps with a maul and wedge, then started in on one of the huge logpiles left on the property after the loggers left. Here, I've barely made a dent in one of the woodpiles. Those who know me well enough to know I can't do anything without ending up in the hospital will be delighted to know I'm chainsawing on slippery ice, having not eaten all day and while balancing atop the huge woodpile, with a cold beer balanced one log over. Thank God I work for a health insurance company, heh heh. (Click on the wood to enlarge it.)

DON'T TELL ME THIS ISN'T SIX INCHES! Holy cow, you can click on it to enlarge! What a nice surprise snowfall today, and it's still coming down. After a wonderful White Christmas (the first one in our area in more than 30 years) it was followed by this - a spectacular snowfall in a winter that has already been very good to us with plenty of 'white stuff' to share! Want some?

Things took a sudden, sharp turn toward the holidays when Jim and Linda worked together to hang lights, set up the tree and unpack boxes of ornaments. With all the recent work done on our Lariat Drive property, the lights just add bling to an ever-changing scene.

In our first real snowfall of the season, I wrote RINA in the snow on one VW. Then Marina, my daughter, wrote DAD in the snow on the other. We had a wonderful time together in the snow!
