We are having a perfectly beautiful day today–bright and warm. I’m doing laundry and hanging it out and hope to get some gardening in after we record our Wyrd Mountain Gals podcast. A red-tailed hawk in her winter fluffery is calling from a high branch of the old maple tree and the song birds are being very quiet. We live for these bright days here in the southern Highlands of Appalachia. We love them while we have them, knowing they can’t last long.

We’re expecting snow tonight.
