outside, inside

 

Outside, there are lovely footprints in the snow from the birds and squirrels and chipmunks as they visit the pond for water. The chicken's water is freezing solid and we're back into the regular winter routine of changing it out several times a day (although they're free to do so, they're much to 'chicken' to venture out in the snow and drink from the pond).

Inside, there's warm milk and wool blankets and the afternoon sun shining on our faces through the back windows. It's cozy and it's warm.
