First Week of December

Snow under low clouds that hid the hills. Any form of precipitation is always welcome.





Maggie on a cold evening. We had a fire in the stove as the temperature dropped to two degrees. Maggie slept contentedly on Julie's lap.





The current remodel project is almost finished. We have the flooring installed and much of the trim completed. All that remains is to install toe kick on the pantry, a few pieces of trim, some other miscellaneous items, touch up some paint, store the tools and plan the next project.





This little device merits an entire article. We did not request it but received it from an insurance company. It plugs into the ODB port on a car, records driving records and transmits them to the insurance company via cell signal. It's an example of corporate research, manipulative marketing, spy technology, big brother,animal husbandry of humanity and a few other bad things. I took this photo before returning the device.
