Merry Christmas! We were certainly busy the last few weeks. I did a lot of baking, cleaning, and wrapping presents. On top of that, the weather has been yo-yoing like crazy. We get snow. Then it warms up and melts and turns to ice. We may need to get a Zamboni.
We took advantage on a 50-degree day to take Dollor out and see if this dog can hunt. We did get a grouse, but not from Dollor's efforts. He was overwhelmed with everything and wasn't quite sure what he was supposed to be looking for. He didn't get to flush the grouse as they flushed long before we got near them. Maybe next time.
It was great to get out and walk somewhere different. It was also nice not having to worry about slipping and falling. The weather was perfect.
He wasn't sure what he was supposed to be doing, but it was fun anyway.
The sunrises and sunsets have been colorful. Of course, a red sky in the morning is supposed to be a sailor's warning.
I made a quick trip out to my parent's ranch. They had the Christmas lights up (more than I can say). The place looked great.
The sunset at home was double the pleasure as it reflected off of the river. The turkeys were roosting all around me. I enjoyed my time back. I was able to deliver my parent's present, and we were able to visit. It is always good to go home. Even if for a day. The best part was not stressing out about driving in wind, snow, or rain. It was smooth sailing both ways.
Christmas was a quiet affair for my husband and I. We went for a nice long stroll, enjoyed good food, and drove around the area looking at Christmas lights.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas filled with family and fun. Is the weather as warm where you are? Were you able to celebrate with family?
