Winter walking

I know she’s tired enough when I find her in my footsteps

Mad house at this unofficial dog park

Favorite Food with Favorite People

We finally got together at the ranch for some fried venison, mashed potatoes, peas, and delicious wine.  Oh so good!

Postal love – one expected & one surprise

Queen Tiga

With the colder weather, we have been bringing Tiga in at night.  She REALLY prefers to be indoors, but tough titty said the kitty (or the kitty’s parents), she is going back outside.

Retracing your steps.

Lost my leash yesterday in my rye fascination, and retraced my tracks in the snow today. Found it.

I think this is wild beach rye

Didn’t know we had wild beach rye until I recently read that these plants grew a lot of fungus this summer. Ergot fungus, the kind that they suspect fueled the hallucinations during the Salem witch trials. So, um, don’t eat it, and stuff. http://juneauempire.com/outdoors/2012-12-21/trails-ergot#.UOpusqw8oR8

Max Levitates Objects

Using the power of thought (or a complex interpretation of facial muscles), you can change the speed on a fan, which allows this little blue ball to change height and travel through different challenge courses.  It’s a pretty sweet, new Christmas toy.
