I'm ok with winter in Rural Canada. No, really, I am! I'm all ready to shovel and salt to run Saturday errands...

...Wasn't counting on needing a chainsaw though.

It's beautiful outside. It's also -14.

Fergus took one look outside and went back to bed.

Clever fellow that he is..

I know this is a difficult day for the US.

Not a single snowflake changed its course for Trump.

Take comfort. He is tiny and brief, and the world is vast.

A winter pine, weighted down with snow, becomes a perfect hiding place for hide and seek with Fergus.

Poor little Hopalong. We have five Bluejays that are regulars at our feeder, and this lovely fellow has had a broken foot for months.

Keeping him chubby and happy through the winter is a major 2025 goal

Trying to make this today for the first time. Mujadara with ALL the onions.

Beneath the dim and dying
moon, snow, the forest floor,
Enough light for steps
But only four.

Winter is bitter
teeth in the pines, crackling
