A mountain walking track in Japan.

Chiare, fresche et dolci acque,
ove le belle membra
pose colei che sola a me par donna...

^The kidlings having fun is always a spirit lifter. Love the matching suits, by the way (we did the same thing).

I got stuck in a Santa traffic jam this week. Every year volunteers do the rounds and collect money for charity. I am not sure Santa’s sleigh would pass a UK Vehicle inspection, but I suspect a few of the Elves moonlight as Police for a day job,..so he gets a free pass :0).

Mentoring the youngsters. Great to be reminded that there are always young people being serious about what they're going to do with their lives and then showing the maturity to make it happen.

Not an image really, because I couldn't see it as it was dark...but there's a photo from the internet...



Last night out with the dogs before bed, and on this perfectly still and quiet night, we heard two Great Horned Owls calling back and forth to each other. One was in our back yard, and the other across the neighbourhood somewhere.

Call can be heard here...second owl down just click on the file to the right:

Got in bed and could still here one calling from our back yard...

My dog is like a ninja boa constrictor. I never sense him getting into the bed. But when you move a bit to adjust your sleeping position he takes that room immediately until you're on the edge and he's right in the middle of the mattress lol still, I love my buddy
