My second Christmastime in the upper Midwest. While I admit that snow can be a bit of a pain - slippery roads and cold weather aren’t fun - there is something a little bit magical, as someone raised in Texas, about seeing Christmas lights in the snow.

One thing which I find entertaining during the winter here is how many turkeys flock together. The flock was even bigger Tuesday morning - 40-50 of them.

Move to Northern Illinois they said. It will be fun, they said. As someone raised in Texas, temps like this are somewhat unreal (and yes, I do know it gets colder) 🥶🥶🥶

Anyway, every platform needs cute cat photos, so here is my cat, Puck.
