There, for Mark — that’s Mount Diablo poking up there, behind the Golden Energy.
It was so still a week ago.
In any case, we’ve made it to the weekend.
There is potato-leek soup waiting for me in the slow cooker, and a driveway full of wood, apparently, which will need to be stacked. It may never get cold again, though, which makes me very sad.
I know — I don’t expect anyone to sympathize.
All right — there are a few more things to do around here, I’m at work, and then I’m going home.
I have to say, ordinary life is not a bad thing.
Love the last photo with your shadow in it.
I do sympathize! It’s been a wee bit too nippy here (15ish), but in general I enjoy the cold. And we have had a disappointing lack of snow. Pleh. Happy weekend!
We’ve had no lack of snow. Trade me houses,so I can thaw out!
Ordinary life is not bad at all. Ordinary January is precious and to be enjoyed.
Please share directions for soup!
Have not forgotten about the soup — basically it’s one peeled and diced potato per leek, with water or stock to cover. I added celery, too. Put it in the crockpot for, oh, 6 hours and then blend it all up somehow. 4 potatoes plus 4 leeks made about 4 portions.
Hey–nice photos and thanks for the shout out! Ordinary life around here is pretty nice, if ya asked me!
