Crumbly Acres: embrace winter

They are delightful to watch. They surround the house in the morning.


I noticed they were after my rhododendrons! 


My mistake was leaving the pumpkins in the middle of the garden. 
 


They were eyeing the bird feeder.


Their fur coats are amazing!`

The poor rhodos... I think they ate the one bud, and most of the leaves. I am not confident about spring blooms!  

 

I wrapped them up for protection. December was a bit of a shock, as well as November. I wasn't ready!


🥶 Monday morning, -17 ℃. and I drove the garbage the 100m to the highway pickup. Bbbbrrrrrr!

It is good to be able to embrace winter. Our Ottawa kids went tobogganing, after a ski afternoon last week. Jordan is back at university. Aster back to gr. 10 and exams this month! 



Our Vancouver family are embracing winter after their big move to a new house and a run in their panto theatre.

Meanwhile, I did the driveway once. Joe did the sidewalk. Twice. it's good he can do it. He has had a rotator cuff injury since March, 2020
I looked like Frosty snowman when I was done. 

It's not so bad doing it in the sunshine, after the snowfall. That did not happen Monday.
