All dressed up.
Nowhere to go.
Of course, they say all roads lead there anyway.

Charlie, cow-cat colouring and 80% dog by behaviour, was named after Charlie Chaplin because of his mustache. Though certain people voted for Adolph. *cough*
Charlie is 50% of the mouse-patrol on the farm. When not stalking rodents and birds, Charlie enjoys belly rubs, snuggles, and car rides. Don't leave your car door open if you visit. You will end up discovering you have company half way down the road when he's looking out the front window, paws on the dashboard, chirping happily.

All is quiet on New Year's Day.
A world in white gets underway.
I want to be with you, be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
On New Year's Day.
I... will be with you again.
I... will be with you again.
Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspaper says, says
Say it's true, it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one.
I... I will begin again
I... I will begin again.
Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh.
Oh, maybe the time is right.
Oh, maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.
And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

Sometimes I think that I'm just following the herd and staring at someone else's butt along the way, instead of paying attention to that which is important.
But don't tell the little guys on Paul's TV that they're doing that. They're a bit sensitive, those sheep.

After over a foot of snow last week, the temperature climbed over 10°C today, with a little drizzle for added fun. The heat and humidity of the air against the piles of snow on the ground made for some amazing fog, so Paul and I jumped in the Golf and ran thither and yon across the landscape trying to capture it on film.
The photo I went out for did not turn out as I had hoped, but a chance stop near Rockwood to watch an ice-fisher at work showed me a lonely stump out in the water.

I went on a walk with Rose this morning, down 5th Line to the 70KM/H sign and back. I believe it's around 6 km, total.
This farm is just after the corner of 17th Sideroad and 5th Line. The red really pops against the snow, and the sky was grey and miserable, though the day was unusually warm for December.
