Brrr… It’s cold this morning – 38*. Not ready for this. Suppose to rain and have some high winds.
No deer in the yard this AM. Just a friendly little skunk. Hope he leaves soon. Cassidy, our black lab, wants to go out, but I think she will have to wait a little.
Getting ready to do the Gem and Mineral show in Holland, Michigan, at the Civic center. It starts Friday and goes thru Sunday. It’s a fun show, so stop on by if you are in the area. Look BJ’s up and tell them you read their blog!
Got to go for now. Many many things to do.
Today was the day to watch the deer eating the apples. This morning there was a nice 4 point buck under the apple trees just a munching away. He was pretty. Then around noon I was very surprised to see one right in our back yard munching on apples. Later there were 3 in the front yard, 2 young ones and a doe. Apparently they were hungry today. They are so much fun too watch.
After a very rainy day yesterday, I got up this AM to 49* and the sun just coming up over the trees. It was a wonderful sight after yesterday with the rain coming down sideways! As I stood there, I watched the hummingbirds and was amazed when I counted 5 of them all sitting in various places. It’s not often that you will catch them sitting still. I really think they were cold and trying to keep warm! To have 5 at this time of year in Northern Michigan is a real treat. It won’t be long and they will be heading south. We will miss them.

This is one of my handcarved soapstone carvings.
