Tchau 2010

 Some people take the last moments of the year to wax philosophical.  Not me.  In fact, I haven't even bothered with goals for the new year.  It is less depressing when you miss if you don't bother to aim in the first place.

 It was nice of 2010 to end on a sunny day.  We've had two in a row as a matter of fact.  Sunny days are so much better for my mood than overcast days are, even if they are colder.  It was 4 degrees tonight.  That's cold, but beautiful!

 Some things around here never change, no matter the year.  Buddy will always be staring down his goats. 

 And patiently waiting.

 And Jasmine will continue to get snow between her toes,

 because she loves to cover a lot of territory looking for something to chase.

 But, this looks cold to me.  I bought her some of those fancy dog booties the first winter she was on the farm.  It didn't take her but 30 seconds to lose them in the snow.  We didn't find them until the snow melted in the spring.

 She is always has her nose to the ground, sniffing out mice.

 Just a job hazard I suppose.

        A whole forest of flocked trees. 

Bem Vindo 2011!
