First Visit Back After Five Year Absence

Hmm, been over five years since I've posted here.  Mostly because it got to be a pain to write and post pictures to multiple sites.  I ended up posting almost exclusively to Facebook.  FB gives me a small targeted audience of family & friends who get to see all of my posts automatically without having to make a separate visit to my blog.  And since I was already using FB daily to check up on the activities of friends and family, it just became more convenient to post everything there and to stop duplicating posts to my blog.
Anybody out there reading this?  Doubt it.  Which just confirms that going to Facebook was the right decision.
Christmas stocking stuffer I received this year.

Pumpkin Eaters

With Halloween over, it was time to get rid of our old jack-o-lanterns.  Rather than throw them into the trash, I put them out next to the house for the wildlife.  Well, actually, I had fun tossing them up as high as I could and watching them splat down, breaking into pieces in the process.  Guess I can understand why teen aged vandals get so much pleasure from smashing pumpkins.

Anyhow, much to my surprise, a couple of bull elk came by within hours to feast on this autumn pumpkin buffet.  They hadn't finished eating when several deer joined the feast.  Made for some great fun watching from both indoors and outdoors.

Fifteen Inches Of Fresh Snow. October26,2011

This was the first really big dump of the season.  Karen and I were up early and excited about the snowfall.  After our morning coffee and oatmeal, we went out to shovel the drive.  Thanks to the help of good neighbor Jack and his snow blower, the job was fast and fun.  Mid-afternoon we took a drive into the park just to enjoy the scenery and wildlife.
