Ice Decorations

 "Lynn,  those things don't look floofy or furry or warm. What

kinda animals are they? I don't see any kitties and I know I would

not be out in that cold!"

beaver

                                And if you are wondering how they are made,

                                        it was not with chisel and hammer, or chainsaw.

                                        Just the same way you make ice cubes,  in a mold

                                        in a very cold freezer.

                                     I left the Precious safely and snuggly 

                                    at home one cold day to see the Winter Festival in

                                     a neighboring town.  There were lot of ice statues in front

                                     of the small businesses.  A few food trucks in the area 

                                    and a few window watchers along.  We went to get out  

                                     for a bit.  We've gone before when it was so 

                                     warm they were melting.  Not this year!

                                         I did go into the shoe store and get a new pair of 

                                     hiking boots.  This store is the Real McCoy.  Run by the

                                      same family for decades. 

                                         The door is inset and the side display windows

                                     hold lots of shoes.  The shelves run up to the tin 

                                     ceiling on two walls.

We were glad to come home to warm furnace

and a hungry cat, needless to say.  She's always

waiting for us to get in and get with it!

"It's hungry work waiting, Lynn."

Screech Owl

This owl has been in and out of the bird/squirrel box a
few times this winter.  The song birds sometimes let us
know she's in there during the day by mobbing her entrance.
