« on: December 24, 2006, 04:50:00 pm »
110f last week, 55 f today! A white Christmas!!! who would have thought!

Have a great day everyone.

PS. It hailed so much last night that Santa and his reindeer took shelter under my porch, so he might be running a bit late. Gee those reindeer sure make a mess!

Magnífico, magnífico, uhm... TERRA AUSTRALIS, the Sea, the waves, my friend the eucalyptus, the sand, the marine salt smelling, the ugly and destartalated sea bird, the infinito and beyond.... Grandious images. Spain cold too, between 0 and 3º C during the night, 15-19º C at lunch time. Chimney so nice, better than watching TV.
By the way, Merry Christmas and happy new year to everybody.

Mick, simply beautiful pictures, the one of the clouds and oceans particularly caught my attention, so pretty.  The poor cattle, they looked absolutely stunned about the weather I guess.  Great day. Cindi

Abe if I ever get rich, Im flying you out here, may as well bring Cindi along to!

The coes had only dropped the calves about 3 weeks ago, and I guess they were not impressed with the cold weather!

Cool, let's go to Australia, better hope that Mick gets rich one day.

Of course, now that I look at the three cattle, I see the little calf standing alongside it mother.  I love cows, my grandson loves cows, wish I could get a milker.  I know that he would help. 

He asked for a cow for Christmas.  He got a T-shirt with a cow on it, a box of candies called "cows" and no real cow.  Oh well, maybe one day a milker we will get.  Would have to be a Jersey, like our old Candy girl, so many years ago.   She was a sweetness of a cow for sure.  All great day.  Cindi
