Woke up the other morning and this critter was looking at me from my front yard. The morning before that it was a herd of cows. Oh, well! At least I don't have to shoot anything - yet. This little pony belongs to my neighbors grandson. They can't seem to keep him fenced in. He won't do any damage but I do worry about him being on the road and getting hit. We had had a real heavy frost and he was sauntering around looking for more of that green stuff.
Woke up this morning to this. Don't know where that white stuff came from. It's been in the high 50's and low 60's for the past week. Now all of a sudden Old Man Winter pokes his head out of the hole and it's below zero and high in the mid 30's. Like I said, it's always something. We were supposed to go to Cookeville, which is an hour drive, so I could get some dental work done. I walked out to the end of the driveway and there were no tracks on the main road and that was around 8AM. That means that the roads are unsafe and everyone is staying in. We have a treacherous switchback below the house and once you start down that hill you can't stop on a road like this but you can slide off the side of the mountain. Nyet. Not today. We'll hunker down and wait for the snow to melt but it looks like it'll be a couple of days. They're predicting .1 inch of ice tonight and that just might take down our power lines. Regardless - we'll just wait it out.
