It is Saturday January 6th, 2007.   And 66° Fahrenheit...   outdoors.   If feels like the first week of May instead of the first week of January!

Our horses have full winter coats, brought on the by the "shorter days" of winter.   Overdressed, they are, as winter has failed to arrive full force and stay around for more than a few days at a time.

As of today, we have had less than 2 inches of snow this winter.   By now, we would have expected quite a bit more.

But, they say winter is definitely coming.   Question is, in which month?  

For now, we are bathing in the warm sunlight...   in tropical New Hampshire.   But this is New England, land of "If you don't like the weather, wait an hour".   We could well be under several feet of snow before we know it.   It's just so difficult to imagine right now with this fabulous BBQ weather.
