clear and bright

Today dawned bright and sunny . . . and cold.

The sun poured into the kitchen and I took this picture of Zeke as he basked; he looks like a little old man!

Huck had spent yesterday out with Mike and Andrew hunting pheasants.  I think he was still tired; he's usually very exuberant but was a bit more subdued.

We heard from Alex that she is battling a bad cold so her attendance on Wednesday may be iffy. We went into town to do the shopping for things she was to bring; carrots, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes, etc. She'll let us know tomorrow if she's going to come.

Nice invigorating walk with the dogs this afternoon.  Then tomorrow we'll make a trip to the Museum of the Rockies to check on the resident dinosaurs; Andrew has never been there.   Tomorrow's dinner is taken car of:  Ted's for bison.
