Snow White

We have snow. It snowed earlier in the week, then another day it got a bit warm and some of it melted. Then it snowed again yesterday. We have a few inches, but Sister Patti says they have a foot of snow at their house in Lostine, Oregon. No thank you! We are watching the weather reports to see if it is safe for us to travel. When I opened the blinds in my craft room yesterday morning, I saw tracks. I didn't know what kind of animal made them, so I asked Hubby. He gave me a lesson on tracks, cats, claws, etc. Those I saw are from domestic cats. The tracks are gone this morning since it snowed and covered them up. 

This is on the front of a journal Sister Edie
gave me for Christmas. She knows me well!

We don't have any pets, but there are neighborhood cats who wander thru our yard daily. One of them climbs up the fence behind a bird feeder and walks gingerly on the fence before jumping down to the yards behind ours. I name the cats, of course. Since I name cars, my mannequins, etc. Curly Tail has been here since we moved in about 5-1/2 years ago. Recently an all-black cat wanders thru. We are glad to have them to keep the mouse population at bay, but we don't like it when they sit under a bush and watch the other bird feeder. We will scare them away because we don't want them to eat our birds. Boots hasn't been around in a while. Butterscotch was a mess of scruffy looking fur when we moved in and wasn't here long. 

Squirrels are here several times a day. They run along the power lines and the top of our fence. They are entertaining.
