Jack and I took a lunch tour on the Steamboat Natchez in New Orleans.
Steamboat Natchez

More than a Trace
Yesterday, the forecasters predicted a trace of snow for our area. Instead it snowed most of the day. Our neighbor with the massive snowblower did our driveway and the sidewalk along the road. I suppose he figures that once he gets it started he might as well do the block.
Barataria Preserve
Our last day in Louisiana was rainy, but we got to the Barataria Perserve while it was still just cloudy. The trees were covered with Spanish Moss.

Garden Wall
I took this photo of a garden wall at National Botanic Garden in Dublin last August.
Eleven Years Ago
Eleven years ago today, Rion joined our household from the Pikes Peak Humane Society as an eight week old infant. I took this photo this morning of him snuggling on the bed in his blankie.
Holiday Tree
This year, we decided to put the tree in the corner of the great room.
Rare Event
It is very rare for Bandit and Rion to share the crate like this.

Viking Hut in National Botanic Garden (Ireland)
The first day we were in Ireland this past summer, we focussed on getting sim cards for our cell phones. We found a small electronics shop on Grafton streets that quickly outfitted our phones with a telephone plan. We also had the obligatory lunch at a pub where I ate fish and chips.
Our second day, we took our phones and our umbrellas to the National Botanic Garden, where I took this photo of a reconstructed Viking house.
