Melting Ice

I think this photo is stunning! via

A Red Fox Visits My Cottage Today

I was passing by the french doors in the living room and spied this beautiful red fox in the snow. My camera with the long lens was nearby and I was able to get a good photo. He's beautiful, isn't he?

Wonderful House Tour - Tricia Foley

You will enjoy this ranch house in Long Island designed by Tricia Foley. I love the open floor plan and the use of sliding barn-style doors that are extensions of the paneled walls. Here's the house tour - view the photos horizontally. Isn't it great?

Brrr

You know it's cold when the dogs just want to take a quick visit to the woods and then head back to the door to get inside. I was fully dressed for a long walk in the snow but they decided otherwise this morning before breakfast. I took this photo of my frozen birdbath last winter and still love it. Enjoy your Sunday.

Baby New Year by Jessie Willcox Smith

How adorable! I've never seen this circa 1910 image of Baby New Year sitting in a black doctor's bag.  via

Webster and Henry Play in the Snow

Actually, Henry was the only one playing. I had him off leash and he was running around like a crazy little dog enjoying the new fallen snow. Now they are both in the house napping after an exhausting romp. Webster is happy about almost a whole week of puppy sitting his friend. Tabitha, not so much. She slept in the attic last night.
This village looks beautiful in the early morning hours, doesn't it? I see flowers so it must be spring with a little snow. I'm waiting for the snow we are supposed to be getting today. I picked up a few essentials at Trader Joe's yesterday so I'm ready. Enjoy the last weekend of 2012. via

Enchanted Cottage

I want to peek inside and I know I'll love it. It's a forever cottage made of brick with a tile roof. It is a bed and breakfast in Georgetown, SC near Charleston called Mansfield Plantation.
