The Early Bird ...

Greetings to all! It's me, Mags. We left the house super-early this morning and stepped up the pace a TON! Check out this shot of us:

 

"Almost home, Ragnar!  That was a mighty fast 5-plus miles!"
"I think Mom is happy she can see what we're doing now..."  

We usually see the sunrise on our way UP that hill, not the way back down! Something about getting back before the builders show up to work on our house. Good thing we hustled - they showed up early! YAY!

How does that saying go?  "The early bird gets home before the builders"?  Or is that "The early birds get to snarf up the smooshed ornamental fruit because the bipeds can't see anything"?  One of the two, I'm sure.

 

Yours sincerely,

Margaret Thatcher

PS: We are expecting a big snow storm, possible ice, high winds, and sub-zero temps tonight. What a lovely belated Christmas present! If anyone local is going to be out and about -- please be SAFE!!!
