Winter:

The windows at our front door are not stained
glass. The colors were beautiful, anyway. From
our windows we have daily views in three
directions of the mountains, but our kitchen
window is the favorite. From there we see the
rocky, often snowy peak of Mount Cheam.
I wonder why they spelled it that way. Why not
spell it as it is pronounced: Shem. What a sham.
The kitchen window was also vulnerable to
freezing rain, this year, and became a work of
abstract art.

Dani, as I have often seen her, nearly swept
away like a leaf. This time, she was chasing
across the fields to get close to the birds:
ducks, geese, and swans.

We had an unusually heavy amount of snow,
this winter.
The photo of our house is especially
interesting, however. Compare it to fall
photos and you’ll see a very fast growing tree.
Here’s Dani at Chilliwack River.
