Good Night, Webster

He is ready to go to bed, but he's fighting it. He is really missing our long walks but they are virtually impossible unless we walk on the road. I don't want to do that because of all the salt. Hopefully we will be able to trudge to the "way back" really soon! Have a good Saturday night. xo

Kerr - Clan and Tartan

There is no rhyme or reason to the pages I will feature from this little book of mine. I just like this particular tartan this sunny Saturday morning.

The Crest Badge is nice too -- The sun in his splendour. Motto: Late but in earnest. Oh dear, but at least the Kerrs have an excuse for always being late. Question -- Do report cards still have a section for tardiness these days, as mine did? Have a great weekend.

Webster Has Tucked In

Our boy Webster has already thrown in the towel and called it a night. He dealt with the ice covered snow a lot better today. He mastered going into the woods.

Have a great weekend and we'll see you tomorrow.

Erddig, Welsh Country House on Instagram

What are you waiting for? This is what you are missing by not being on Instagram. Read the description below...sounds like Downton Abbey, doesn't it? I'd love to see the portraits of the servants.

I am following the National Trust on Instagram. Don't you love this photo they posted? I made a screen shot of the entire post below on my phone to share with you. I have never heard of this historic house in Wales but it's now on my bucket list. See, Instagram is not a waste of time. It's educational too!!!!!!!! Even if you never post one picture, you can follow amazing members and see the pictures they post.

Buried in The White Stuff

The ice on top of the snow is so strong you can walk on it and it won't cave in. Webster is completely freaked out by it because he slips and slides and can't find a place to "go". Tabitha has her claws so she's fine. Extreme caution is in order for everyone. My driveway is like the luge without going to Sochi.

Good Morning fresh From My Camera

This is practically live. Only moments from my iPhone to you. We survived the wrath of mother nature and are bracing for more. I actually heard one of the weather reporters talking about 3 feet of snow and 2 converging storms coming up. Guess I should start sharpening my snow shovels. They almost never get it right, so I'm not worried. See you later.
