Babs is morose. We're having lovely snow in northern Michigan and she is Away.
I'm determined to find a bright side, and birch trees have one in every season. They show off the birds to best advantage, they smell nice, and they can be tapped for sap just like sugar maples. The bark makes a good base for quillwork.
Happy New Year!! I had hoped for a really spectacular snow picture today. We are in the middle of a Blizzard Warning, but so far it’s just blown and rained and snowed some, but didn’t stick much. It’s now colder and we may have a foot on the ground by morning, but that didn’t help […]
The Duo and I rode off to Detroit to visit Rob the Firefighter and the Lady Alicia, leaving blog-tending behind. Upon our return, what to our wondering eyes should appear but unopened presents! And some of these are for you.
