What a weather today!  Snow squalls all day long with winds 50 - 70 kph and it seems the snow will keep coming until at least the weekend when we will be getting a mix of snow and rain.  If it weren't for the winds, it would have been fun to get out on the trails out back with the skis.  I think Ozzie will have tough time trying to run through drifts out there today.

The mix of birds are constantly at the feeders so we will have to be diligent in keeping them full.  The birds are barely able to hang on at times because of the wind gusts.  A good day to be inside, but soon it will be time to take Ozzie out for his walk.

It was an exceptionally fine Remembrance Day.  A sadder one for most Canadians this year.

We had mostly sun yet north of us I could see a wall of dark clouds that thankfully went west across the bay.  I was able to work in the gardens in shirt sleeves and managed to clean up the semi mushy Hosta leaves and remove some encroaching grass.  The wet earth is just ideal for pulling out trespassing weeds and such.  Less to do in the spring! 

Two more new additions were made yesterday and this morning.

         Another cloudy day, but still not too bad temperatures to be out walking with Ozzie this morning.  We scared up three grouse and a Red Tailed Hawk that has been hanging around the trails for a week or so.  Yesterday morning there was a beautiful year old buck with little spike antlers grazing on apples about 40 feet from the house - a wonderful sight to see first thing in the morning.

I'm really loving these new ear wires that I've been making.  They sit very well in the ear lobe and even though I include 'stoppers', they seem to be more secure and the Argentium Sterling Silver I'm using means almost no tarnish and less bending.
