I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.
I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.
I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.
I think it's amazing the crow family joins you. I have hummingbirds every day and I love watching them. Birdwatching is immensely enjoyable. I am grateful that we choose to visit each day.
The temperatures have dropped here in Nevada too. There's a mountain we see in the distance, and it's already dressed in white. I think it's going to be an interesting winter, don't you?
Judith, Dr. Suess published his first children's book And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street in 1937. During World War II, he took a brief hiatus from children's literature to illustrate political cartoons, and he worked in the animation and film department of the United States Army. My first experience with his work was How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which was published in 1957 and my grandmother bought it to read to me.
I heard the Sunday Newsweek program on PBS is going to host a program to tell people what to expect from the Trump presidency on Christmas Day. It is broadcast early on Sunday morning. What a way to celebrate Christmas.
OH Yes! Chocolate for Christmas. Did you see the little girl on the web site eating the big chocolate ice creme cone with a piece of shaved chocolate in the middle? Plus, if I had the chance I would eat the light cheese dome from the Bread Top Shop. Then, save a Wish Log for later. The winery tour was in a beautiful valley, with wildlife galore to view.
I seem to be running late on a lot of these prompts but I am still enjoying all the places we visit.
