Day 1
Day 1Sitting on our patio enjoying the outdoor fireplace. Staring into the flames while enjoying a beer. How can it get any better?
Day 2
Day 2Bella wrapped up in a cozy blanket trying to stay warm while we are sitting outside. She is not a winter weather dog!
Day 3
Day 3Close up photo of a hydrangea leaf sitting on a pile of oak leaves. In full color, you might not notice details of the leaf structure. But when you remove the color chaos, you can see the veins and all the other small details.
Day 4
Day 4Charity holding a large maple leaf while we were walking the dog yesterday. We love walking in the cool autumn weather when the sun is shining!
Day 5
Day 5I've got Christmas on the brain. Got a little carried away wrapping presents this morning.
Day 6
Day 6Grinding up turkey breast leftovers to make Italian Turkey Sausage Patties for dinner. The key to keep this recipe from being dry as a bone is to add A LOT OF FAT. i.e. Pork Panko, olive oil, eggs and cheese!! Lots of cheese. For my WNY friends, that’s our little light up Christmas tree we got from Vidler's 5 and 10 sitting in the background.
Day 7
Day 7Found these pine cones shopping this morning. They reminded us of when we were hiking in the Giant Sequoias in Mariposa Grove Yosemite Nation Park a few years ago. The pine cones laying on the ground out there were the size of my arms. HUGE!
Day 8
Day 8Discarded old tires along the path while hiking through the Foxboro Water Shed. These are right by one of the ponds to. There is a torn down house and garage behind me. There are other worse places in these woods that make you wonder why…

Day 9Enjoying chocolate chip cookies with a little bit of smokey blended scotch. I also added a little bit of the peat monster in the cookie dough before baking for a hint of the smokey goodness.
Day 10
Day 10I'm getting a little goofy with this string of Christmas Lights and Garland. I better get these shirtless photos in before all the Christmas parties and the cookies turn me into a pumpkin!!!

Day 19
Day 19This is a big hornet nest hanging out in some pine trees. Charity and I watched this nest grow throughout the summer as we walked Bella. It a bit bigger than a basket ball.

Day 24
Day 24Another windstorm and another afternoon taking leaves in the yard. I wish it would just snow.
Day 25
Day 25Our poor hornet’s nest didn’t survive the storm on Monday. I hope they where not home when their house fell apart.
Day 26
Day 26TBT. 8 years ago I torn my patellar tendon in a potato sack race. I didn't win…. This photo of me is eights years ago today, just 7 weeks after the surgery to reattach the tendon to my quad. I know this is not a new photo, but it shows me with my camera. So I say it counts!!
Day 27
Day 27I can’t think of a better way to spend the morning of the first day of winter. Well…. Maybe being in St John, USVI would be better. But soaking in the hot tub is a close second.
Day 28
Day 28Is the Bill's game on Channel Two tonight? Seriously, what channel is the game on tonight? Do I really need to subscribe to another streaming service I will not watch??
Day 29
Day 29Someone is not too happy about getting her Christmas bath before Santa comes tonight. Remember this, Bella, the next time you find and roll in a pile of bunny poop!
Day 30
Day 30Merry Christmas!! I hope everyone got everything they wanted! Have a great day with with your families.

Day 33We got another shitty weather day while on Christmas break this week.

Great Stuff!!!
Day 34
Day 34Another gray day today. We were up in Boston walking around Copley and Newbury. Nothing was jumping out to me worth picturing that was backed by dismal fog and clouds. This is Trinity Church at Copley Square with the John Hancock tower in the back ground.

Day 46
Day 46We were out walking Bella today and we kept seeing these snow boulders left over from all the rain last night. They all had these symmetric lines on them just like tree trunks. It was really cool…… then Bella pees on them. 😏
Day 47
Day 47A Bowl of Cherry Tomatoes. I stopped being lazy today and took a real photo with my big camera and proper lighting.
