Mick's Haircut

We're into mud season now, all the worse because we have no paving, hardscape, or landscaping done yet. We decided last week that it would be a good idea to get Mick a buzz cut, to cut down on the mud he brings into the house! Here he is in the basement with his favorite indoor toy, the Puppy.

They've found our stash...


A couple of weeks ago the Dept of Wildlife Resources (DWR) finally decided it was time to step in and start feeding the deer. OK, so we'd decided that on our own prior to governmental intervention, but regardless... The great part about DWR involvement is that they are now providing the food and have also provided us with an additional 3 feeders and a salt lick for the deer! We've been storing the bags of feed in our entryway and it was just a matter of time before some of the more resourceful - or less timid - animals figured that out! I had to stand to the side of the window and just stick my arm out with the camera in order to get this shot...

Visitors


The snow has driven the deer down from the higher elevations - every day we have at least a dozen wandering around our yard in search of food. The one in the background is raiding our compost pile.

What do we do now?


Now that the house is "done", we've got to find other ways to occupy our time! Fortunately, we're having a stellar winter, so we're practicing our powder skiing...those are our fresh tracks behind me!!
