The Day After Feasting.....

 It is extremely cold. I picked up a shot with my neighbors sun room included. They have lots of plant lights in there and it glows all night long.

We have lots of foxes and coyotes that have kept the rabbit population down to us really not seeing any. The squirrels have kept themselves safe in the trees. Even so, we have very few squirrels than when we first moved here. This one guy is very hungry. I couldn't get a full body view of this guy as he got scared when he saw me from the window.

The seed is good and the squirrel is having a good meal. He has a healthy color and bright shiny eyes. My brother sends me pictures from California of his red squirrels eating sunflower seeds too. 

We put up one small tree for our visiting grandchildren to see. By the time we left our one grandson, Teddy, placed his lego creations of spaceships and vehicles among the branches of the tree. I think they will probably stay there for the whole Christmas season. He was a lot of fun.

I sat and watched him work I also helped build buildings along the way with what few bricks were stll leftover. My two sons had lots of Legos but most of them are made up into all these creations and houses.

 Our guests got a hotel with a swimming pool this year and they came for Thanksgiving day and also for Friday morning before they left for their Chicago area home. The parents and three kids were a lot of fun and my wife felt well enough for guest in spite of her having her last surgical procedure eight days ago.  We have lots of leftovers for days of feasting beyond. 

Thanks for stopping by today.
