Relaxing In Nature


Ahhhhh...there's nothing like leaning back against a tree, looking at the water rippling in the pond...until you realize none of that is happening in this photo.

Looking For Christmas



December 21st...December 22nd...December 23rd...December 24th...

Okay...is it Christmas yet?!?

Hmmmm...maybe it's up there...

Yahoo Email

I can't access my Yahoo email right now.  I was a little worried until I saw this graph.  I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I'm not the ONLY one... :-)

Christmas Tree/Cat Safety










I won't sit here and give cat owners a reason to be wary when putting a Christmas tree in your house. I'll sit here and give cat owners TEN reasons... :-)

Goodbye Autumn, Hello Winter.

It is a rainy, snowy end of autumn and beginning of winter, my friends...
Winter begins in 5 hours and 40 minutes...

Temperature and Precipitation Outlooks




Here are the latest outlooks for January and for Jan/Feb/Mar:  The Four Corners states can expect a better chance for above average temperatures through the winter, with a better chance for below average temperatures around Montana.

For rain/snow, it's looking more promising in Montana than elsewhere in January, but for the Four Corners states we (once again) have a better chance for below average rain/snow through the winter and spring.  It doesn't make rain and snow impossible, the chances just aren't as good.

Our Moon & Jupiter

If you look to the west you'll see our Moon, and the bright light to its north is Jupiter.  If they were closer (from our vantage point) and you had a telephoto lens, you could see an amazing conjunction of them like this!  Have a great Thursday, everybody! :-)

Dog "Decision Tree"

I posted this photo montage last December, but I love this dog's expressions so much that I decided it needed to make a comeback.  :-)

You're Home Early!

OH!  Uh...HEY...you're home early!  There's a, uh, perfectly good explanation for this.  As soon as I think of it, I'll be sure to let you know...

May Your Monday...

May your Monday be much better and more successful than this... :-)  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSkjT_SpOEY

Sugar-Free Sugar


I really, REALLY want to know what is in this bag of "sugar"!  Is it empty?  Is it the answer to our world's hunger, obesity and diabetes problems?  Nobody knows!  :-)

Sunbathing Beauty

My cat Simba knows how to stay warm.  Before sunrise, she's in front of the heating vent.  After sunrise, she's a sunbathing beauty.  Have a great Saturday!  :-)

Happy Birthday!

Not only do I get to talk about snow on this Friday the 13th, but I get to wish my mom a Happy Birthday!  Fry from Futurama helps with his "Not Sure If..." :-)

Snow Twacks

You do realize we have wings and we can FLY, instead of walking on this snow, right?  I wasn't gonna say it, but I gotta...you're DAFFY.  See what you made me do?

There was a little snow falling from the sky as I got the paper this morning, but not enough for me to make tracks, or ducks to make "twacks".  Have a great Friday!

Star Wars Selfie

Totally captured the rebel ship and blasted our way in.  Some "princess" said they're on a peace mission and didn't have the plans. I'm all like, yeah, right, whatevs!  Now we have to follow some pod to a desert planet.  I'm NOT going down there wearing this...it's way too hot! Anyway, SELFIE! #Tattooine #Rebelscum #DarkSide4Eva

So Much Cold Montana Air...



My hometown of Dillon, MT has been below freezing for 110+ hours in a row, and below zero for 80+ hours in a row.  -14 now.  18 above in ABQ seems tolerable...

Cold Temperatures Coming!


Lows tomorrow morning will range from the 10s to the -10s, New Mexico!  Keep your red and green from turning blue, and keep yourselves and your pets warm, too!

Watching The Snow


Well, there WAS snow falling...I know there was...I was watching it!


I can tell that the snow on the lawn is already melting, despite the lack of sun, wind and warmth. That's desert snow for you! Keep in mind, it will still be snowy and icy (with more snow falling) east of the Sandias and Sangre de Cristos. Please be safe!

Snowy, Icy Roads

These dogs are taking full advantage of the snow, but they're on the slopes.  Make sure you're careful when you make your way on our snowy, icy roads today!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRSsxfu0F3o

Hang On!

Hang onto your feathers, everyone...the wind is already getting stronger!  You'll need all the feathers you can get when the snowy, colder weather arrives, too!  Be safe!

This is an awesome spinning ice mass in North Dakota donchaknow?  Ohyeahsureyabetcha!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6PKVsOZoI4

Cyber Monday?  Sure...why not?  :-)   (http://www.golphcards.com/)

If you, your friends or family like to play cards, you'll LOVE my GOLPH Card Game!  Fun for all ages, very easy to learn and inexpensive, too!  GOLPH is only $5 per deck, and if you buy 2 or more you get a free deck!  It's a great gift and/or stocking stuffer!  You can order from my website, and there is a demonstration video, too (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FRI9INKnh4).

Some deer were having a Thanksgiving feast on my folks' lawn yesterday morning just a few feet from me...life in Montana!  Have a fun, safe and quiet weekend!
