Silver and Gold

Early Morning January Full Moon 

It has been a lot about the weather lately here in Meadows of Dan. Yesterday we had heavy rains but none of the flooding that surrounding areas have suffered and today it's cold and blowing snow again. Tuesday was wonderfully warm and a great day for getting out and running errands. Today is a perfect day to stay in and get lots of work done after spending yesterday with good friends.

The cat has no good opinion of this weather and spends as much time as he can sleeping upstairs on the bed. It's hard to get a good picture of him because when he sees me he wants immediate attention.

Emma, A Purebred Norwegian Elkhound

And Lily has another new friend. More about her in the next post, although I will say that she is another rescue and pure gold.
