We woke up to about 4" of snow. There isn't much in the way of color around O'Wich - so the snow makes everything look fresh, clean and crisp. We spotted several animal tracks in the snow - not sure which animals but there were tracks.

Paul stopped by for a visit and cup of coffee. After he left, we went to Wal-Mart. I picked up some Christmas decorations - yes more! I seem to have sold all of mine in the garage sale; along with many dishes needed for entertaining - oops. We also picked up a new track for the patio blinds. 

While I made lunch, Carlo went on squirrel patrol. He was diligent with keeping his post, but the frisky little squirrels scampered off with the slightest of movement. With that being said, one of them may have been stunned a bit! We restocked the woodpile and enjoyed lunch. No not squirrel...salads! 

After lunch we  took pictures since we figured out how to use the time and we have a tripod. Could one of these be on our Christmas cards???? We'll see!

Carlo hung the new track, had no luck with the ~hunt for the red squirrels~ wasn't that a movie?

We cleaned all the cabinets and fridge of food and made a huge buffet for the critters - or will it be for the red squirrels? 

We had a great fire and listened to Christmas Carols for the rest of the evening. We tried to guess who the singers were that were caroling. I think most of them are now dead. (Elvis, Frank, Karen, Bing and Nat to name just a few!)
