Yes, indeedy! We have disgruntled cats, lots of snow, and snow squalls all day.The sky peeking through the clouds called me down to the lake. Once I made it down there, bundled up, camera in hand, I was so very grateful.
Despite the snow and bone-chilling wind off of the water, the green moss and the ivy were adamant about life.
I shovelled the deck three times. The cats were grateful. Awful getting snow in between your toes!
They would yell at me, whine and whinge to go out, then whine and whinge to come back in. "Changed my mind!"

Jenn these are marvelous captures of your day. Love the frog pond with perfect reflections of the forest and the tinge of sunset which came out in its glory to end the day.
Wonderful photos, I love the header shot too it is fabulous.
Tres nice, Jenn ...
We got the snow too. The cats got an early present -- a year round cat-flap door -- so they can no longer be stranded on the deck with snow between their toes when they can't make up their minds... The chickens are less pleased with the snow!
I love your blog header photo too!
Poor little kitties! Can you install heating coils on the deck for their comfort?
Great photographs. I'm sure you got cold taking them. Your area is beautiful in the Winter also.
I loved the picture of the cat. Reminded me of growing up in Utah. It would get cold in the winter of course but we still through the cat out every night. Snow, no snows, ice, blizzard, didn't matter. Didn't think anything of it. Didn't have a cat box. He'd be there in the morning waiting to come back in for his breakfast.
I love your header.
I spent some delightful time with your blog reading over the 30+ posts you published while I was away in France. I made some cranberry sauce and had not thought of placing it on peanut butter as you mentioned – I’ll try it. The picture of your cat sleeping on her bear is precious but I am sorry for the state of Emily. I placed the book Sisters in the Wilderness on my Wish List. I like these types of books very much. I also placed a CD from David Francey on my list – I did not know him so I listened to his clips on Amazon and I like his voice very much (his name sounds like “français – a French person.) I watched your Buildings in Muskoka video and am impressed by your knowledge on how to film, with music then place it on YouTube I would not know how to start. I bought a camcorder last Christmas to take movies of the grandchildren in Ohio but I forgot to bring the battery and attachment, so it is still in its box. I have a friend in Spain who said I should get Skype but am not sure what that involves and how to do it, whatever it is – I am not tech savvy and if it were not for my daughter creating and showing me how to have a blog, I would still be reading blogs only. I like your last picture of the sunset – it looks cold. Reading your blog and looking at the picture of your lake is like going away on a quick trip to Canada, it’s great. We were supposed to get some snowflakes today but so far it is very dry with some leaves still on trees. However I heard that Blairsville, about 2 hour north, in the GA Mountain did get some snow. Maybe we will be lucky this year and get at least one day of snow.
Vagabonde, so glad you are back! Thank you, all, for the compliments. I used to teach these skills to my students. I learned along with them, kids unafraid of taking a risk, experimenting and finding out something new.
We have a monthly Book Review club (1st Wed. of the month!) on one of my other blogs: My Reflections and Musings. Lots of links for books. 'Tis great fun!
We made it through November without a lick of snow. That's the first time I can remember not getting any. Now we are in the midst of a dry arctic blast that is supposed to hold for days, but since it's clear there's no snow now either. Maybe we'll still get a white Christmas. - Margy
