excited to discover the spotlight on the upper deck is working again…

it had been covered with snow for many weeks and I was thinking it wasn’t going to work in the cold…

as I was walking down the stairs on Thursday night, I looked out and saw the light….

apparently the warm and sunny weather uncovered the solar panel on the top of it, lol…

makes me happy, although the camera isn’t out there now…

not like there are fish in the pond that need to be protected, lol…

vents…

went out on Friday and shovelled the sidewalk and the path to the furnace vents…

it was cold and blowy, but there was quite a bit of snow that needed to be moved…

didn’t take too long and there was a lot of snow by the vents…

glad I got to it…

I was surprised to see this on the garage cam this morning… it is a bit blurry, and at first I thought it was a cat, but then I recognized the tail…

thought these guys were gone for the winter, lol… although I don’t care if they come by when there aren’t any fish in the pond for them to eat;-)…

snowblows…

Friday is garbage and recycling day and I usually only take mine out every three or four weeks…

Thursdays are the day to take them out and put them into the lane… I am blessed because my neighbour snowblows behind his garage so there is a spot to put them…

I find that I only need to take one or the other out, which is good because there isn’t always room for both, lol… this time it was the garbage, and I should have shovelled the snow on the path, but didn’t;-)…

now to remember to bring it in later on Friday…

started the year off with a lovely hot tub…

the trees were covered in hoarfrost and looked so nice…

I finally got a photo of the icicles hanging along the edge of the house…

I think they are there because of where the hot tub is located and I no longer sit at that end because I don’t want one to land on my head…

paths…

what a treat this morning…

as I was heading downstairs I spotted not one but two bunnies in the garden…

this could explain the numerous paths through the snow;-)…

it always amazes me how those special moments happen… how I just happen to look out the window at that moment…

life is good 😊…

it looks beautiful outside…

I decided to take a few photos of the deck and opened the sliding door… well, tried to open it…

it slid open about six inches and then wouldn’t move…

was able to stick the phone out just enough to get a few pictures…

it really is lovely to look at, but at some point, I will need to go out and clear the deck off so I can fill the feeder, lol…

yards…

hadn’t shovelled for a few days so went out on Saturday morning to do the sidewalk so people knew I was alive, lol…

wow… a lot of snow had come down…

besides doing the front sidewalk and a space towards each of the neighbours’ yards for the mail carrier, I also shovel a single path along the driveway to get to the vents for the furnace…

I want to be sure they aren’t plugged with snow, which stops the furnace… not a good look😳…

particular…

stood at the window and watched chickadees, a nuthatch, and sparrows at the feeders…

and my neighbour shovelling his sidewalk… he is very particular and does a great job every time… it is fun to watch and makes me giggle every time, because my beloved would have been very impressed;-)…

besides shovelling, he also swept the front steps…
