WINTER IN MAINE~

With Christmas came the snow...a fluffy blanket of white...the Christmas tree now dismantled and placed outdoors for our feathered friends to enjoy...precious ornaments  safely tucked away...but the Christmas spirit remains alive here at Dog Trot Farm... 
This morning Mr. Dog Trot and I ventured out into our woods on snowshoes...the wood dressed in it's winter white finest... not a sound to be heard...but evidence remained from early morning visitors...deer  tracks...small and large...zigzagged our trail...once into the clearing the snow began again and  continues as I type...Last evening... with the moon shining brightly...I donned my headlamp and enjoyed a nighttime stroll to the lower field...the moon cast a shine on the new fallen snow...it was magical...Tasha Tudor magical...
With the new year fast approaching it is time once again to contemplate one's "New Year resolutions." Out with the old and in with the new. Typically... mine reads, lose weight, exercise more, get into shape...organize and make a valiant attempt to complete unfinished craft projects...how I detest the binding of a rug...2013...I resolve to let the chips fall where they may...no stressing over resolutions...take each day that the good Lord has given me and use it to it's fulliest...Amen...
