Freezing Fog

We’ve been having a few days of freezing fog lately. Makes for some neat photos. Make sure you click the 4 corner button near the bottom right to view full screen — looks better that way.

If the above slideshow doesn’t work for you (mom), these same pictures can be found on our flickr site – click on our flickr photos at the right.

Dig Anne

It took some effort, but we are officially unstuck from the blizzard of 2009!

How Now Brown Cow

It is a sign of the season that I am now taking photos of cows. But in their/my defense, there is something beautiful about them. They dot the hills and really seem to have a great time of it. Or at least an okay time. I mean, cows aren’t wonderfully enthusiastic creatures. At least the not the cows I have met. These are not our cows, and so it makes seeing them all the more relaxing and fun. And we are not in the market for a cow, so don’t go trying to give us one. Anne does talk about chickens though. Perhaps that would be something to try next year.

Fall Foliage

Perhaps it is the cooler temps and soggy ground – (stereo)typical weather  of New England states – but whatever the cause, the fall color has been vibrant this year. If only our trees were a little bigger.

The cabin blends nicely with the natural color. Almost like we planned it. Maybe Anne did – I’m a little color challenged.

Come Again Another Day

It was a rainy day.

The perfect day to try out the new rain gauge from Jan. Thanks Jan! Looks like we had just under an inch of rain today. It was a slow steady all-day kind of rain. Now the ground is soggy. And the fruit and flowers are super clean. Perhaps I too should shower.
