Working hard to make holiday wishes come true… a hat to match Alex’s mittens (he’s been looking for one for two years), custom, rainbow-dyed purples and black balloon head for a young lady’s friend, hand warmers knit to a writer’s specs, and so on, and so on…
Winter sunrise – again, the play of light and shadow – more pronounced, yet somehow softer than in other seasons – and, as seen from our back pasture, the additional contrast of the old and the new.
The winter sunrise – the juxtaposition of light and shadow – far and near.
It has been a very busy week! Snow last Saturday, then wind and bitter cold. Lots of hauling hay and water, spinning and knitting going on. We’ve had these photos sitting in draft mode all week long. Soooo, we’ll just share these photos from last weekend and hope for more opportunities to share our farm news during the coming week.
Who wouldn’t take advantage of this extremely rare 60-degree December day and enjoy an afternoon walk? Raven and I started down the hill and were soon joined by an unexpected companion.
We all enjoyed exploring this rock ledge on the side of the knoll. All the colors in the woods have a lovely misty, muted and somewhat grey hue on this cloudy day.
Heading back toward the house, we stopped to contemplate the beauty of this oak tree. Don’t you think that the base of the tree looks like the perfect location for a fairy door? Hmmm…
