A lovely day for sunshine, cats outdoors, deer burrs, trailcam

What a beautiful day it was, Tuesday, January 20th! I did a workout, fetched trailcam photos, fed the birds, and vacuumed.

I managed a snowshoe hare photo on the trail cam.

By Wed., Jan. 21st, it was only 13 C. in the family room downstairs, as it was -24 C. outside. Daisy and I built a fire. She had a nap in her cat bed. Buster and Dorah are upstairs watching the birds in the dawn. The room is now up to a more comfortable temperature! I'm blogging and processing my photos and videos. It's a good life!

I moved the trailcam, and capured the coyote, again at dinner time, and a dancing deer! Check out the change in temperature from Tuesday, the 20th, to the 23rd. I put down some cedar boughs, as Justin suggested, and they were gone within the hour (3:00 p.m)


I took off to my hair appointment. Buster and Daisy were guarding the front porch. (Those dratted red squirrels. ) The sunshine was lovely. We're on the upturn, with the sunshine warming up the car.

Out in the yard, I could tell that the deer were into the burrs! They got them off quickly after breakfast, although it'd be nice to give them a good brush! Our wee Annabelle doesn't seem to like brushing much. I'm working on this. A little each day.

We dodged a bullet Tuesday night, as there was a big power outage in our area. Thankfully, hubby's tennis was still on, since we didn't lost our power. We had TV, water pressure and our propane heat!
There was a car incident, with a hydro pole taken out. Thank goodness for local news radio. We'd never hear what was going on!



We’re still waiting for details about the accident that left more than 8,000 Hydro One customers without power last night.

Posted Wed.: More than 8,700 residences in Lanark County lost power for several hours last night due to a car crash in Lanark Highlands Township just before 6 p.m. Hydro One said power had been restored to all homes, including the last 407, at 4:30 a.m. this morning. Many residents had power back shortly after 6 p.m., except for those in Lavant, Dalhousie and Darling wards in Lanark Highlands.

Watching Perth Skies

skywatch A beautiful day to watch skies.

I am grateful to live near to a delightful town such as Perth, Ontario.

Blue skies, with the odd bit of moisture passing through. We experience the Lake Effect Snow, from the Great Lakes releasing its water content into the air, but it is a wonderful feeling.

Today, with colder temperatures to Ottawa, to the north east, we were outdoors in jackets.

The statue, in honour of Big Ben, and Ian Millar, decorate the town right beside the Tay River.

Finding treasures on the lawn, as our 11-month old granddaughter learns to walk on the rough grass. It is a beautiful day!
