We've suddenly got some unexpected good weather!  Temperatures around 8 degrees (that's 45 in American money), calm, and sunshine!  I went swimming Saturday AND today -- possibility I might make it in tomorrow morning as well -- if I do, that will be a miracle to have three consecutive swimming days in January!

Danny and I went for a walk at Cata Sands yesterday afternoon -- these photos show just how calm the wind is -- you would never normally get reflections this clear!

This hen has started hanging out on the windowsills -- she's startled me quite a few times now!

And here's Cookie's latest snoozing spot!
