COLD DARK ROOM

[JoesMum]

Our walk in the sunshine was very nice. We went to a local country park. They have a new sign at the point where you have to decide which way round the lake to go (we went That Way)


The birds were singing loudly in the sunshine. We saw bullfinches like these... one of my favourite birds.


And we also saw this Peacock butterfly... rather unexpected on a winter’s day. I suspect the warmth brought it out of its overwintering spot, but fear it will not now make it to spring breeding.

Not today... I am roasting chicken for dinner. I make Yorkshire Pud to go with beef and lamb, but not chicken. As for the pints, there are a few decent pubs in the area, but we're both trying to shift the extra pounds put on over Christmas so we're keeping the alcohol to a minimum for a while

PS Tarantulas! Scary!

Tomorrow I'm going to make that video of around here where I live. I would today but I'm just not feeling upto it.

But here is a couple of old pics I found you might like.
I loved this flower

My other crested gecko

A tree at the corner of my property

A sunset in town

A sign to my papas old orchard

A bearded dragon I had.

Me at my father's pond. We have some turtles in it.

And last an OLD pic of me when I was a kid. That dog is the one that saved me from the mountain lion.

What a crazy year for weather. Normally our winter nights are down in the low 30s, so there's frost on the ground every morning. We had about a week or a little less that went down into the 20s, with a very hard freeze, and since then very mild, with no frost. I'm wondering if the frost part of our winter weather is over with. Time to bring the plants back out of the greenhouse?

Good morning Carol, and fellow Roomies!!!

Love the sign.
Bullfinches are beautiful, never seen one here.
Poor butterfly.

Lovely series of pictures!
Thanks for sharing.
That flower is incredible and I love the colour of the tree!
Some memories there, I should think.
You live in a lovely area.

Hmmm.
Risky, I'd wait a bit longer.

No matter what our expert says, this looks fantastic!

Thank you!!! [emoji2]
I posted it on the fossil forum, and several experts quite readily said it is genuine!!!!! [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2][emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]
NOW I need to stabilize it, because the scutes crumble a bit and it creaks when I pick it up-so parts of it are moving and unstable. I’ve got a steep learning curve, but it’s FUN as long as I don’t try to be a perfectionist!!!!!! [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]

 

[Moozillion]

Compromise reached. We’re going out for a walk as soon as he’s finished and should be back for most of the match

There’s a reason we’ve been together over 30 years [emoji849]

Well done, you two!!! [emoji2][emoji106]
