STUDIES IN BLACK AND WHITE.

BLACK AND WHITE MORNING

BLACK AND WHITE DOG

Wednesday, 8:45 AM.  24 degrees F, wind WSW, calm with occasional gusts.  The sky is lightly overcast, with scattered low clouds.  The humidity is 89% and the barometer, now at 30.1", is trending down.  We may get some snow tonight.
   We took  Buddy  down Old San Road yesterday, where there are virtually no cars during the winter and he could run to his heart's content while I got in an easy walk on a couple of inches of untracked new snow.   He is a study in black and white in the winter landscape.
   The wood shed finally became empty of the oak I had sawn and split last summer, and I had a face cord  of firewood delivered by D & M logging, a nice mix of well seasoned maple, oak and birch.  We went out to dinner last evening to celebrate our wedding anniversary and had a lively fire in the fireplace after.  We went to our favorite winter restaurant, the Steak Pit in Washburn, which is always flawless.  My tenderloin fillet was perfect, and Joan's rib-eye also very good.
