The View from Here

 It's cold out there.  First thing every morning I build a fire in the woodstove. 



Work on the old store to convert it to a library and community center is progressing next door.


We have snow on the ground after several small snowfalls.  Very cold temperatures are forecast for this weekend.


I painted a bench we got for free and now it's my plant stand.  Every amaryllis bulb I planted has sprouted.
