Now that winter is here, I spend
most of my time indoors simply
looking outdoors. The birds at the
feeder are always interesting. It
seems that the pecking order is
blue jays first, followed by cardi
nals, and then the smaller birds.
One animal that gets my atten
tion day after day is a red fox that
hunts in our meadow. With the
binoculars, one can see how his
coat glistens and also how very
black his legs are. He makes two
trips through the woods and then
sits in the open area listening for
voles or mice. Sometimes I see
him pounce but most of the time
he heads up the hill to his home
hungry.
Indoors my attention is often on
my blooming impatiens. One
crimson plant has one hundred

flowers at one time. And, nearby
is a pink with dark pink edges that
has some 50 blossoms. Even the
white and red begonias are very
pretty. Of course, they need to be
tended in order to keep them
blooming all winter.
I’ve found time to put a year’s
worth of photos in books. Would
you believe that we received 73
pictures of one grandchild in ten
months? The first child in a family
has the most pictures taken of him.
Some scrapbooks have been filled
and a few magazines read.
Over Christmas both our car
and our truck decided not to work.
So, it was good that the family
gathering was here as we were
homebound. There were about 40
at our gathering and too much
food was left over.
