Well it is a cold winter morning here in our little valley. The sun is shining and there is no wind blowing right now. The wind sure has been blowing over the last few days, I can not remember us ever having wind this high for this many days. The wind has been so cold and high, you can not stand to be out in it for long at a time. I know we always have a lot of wind in March, but never this bad and in January. With all this winter weather forecasted I have got my bread and milk, I do not know why when there is a forecast for any kind of bad...

The cats were ready for a warm breakfast, they ate in a hurry and went to get back in their warm beds. Bob is washing the breakfast dishes and when he finishes the kitchen will be spotless. The house is nice and warm. The old wood heating stove is doing a good job, I put firewood in it a little while ago and now outside I can see the smoke drifting...

Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley, it has not been real bad cold yet this winter, but I think next week a front is suppose to come through and then it is going to turn colder, hopefully by Christmas day it will really feel like winter.
