Yesterday was very cold...our pipes were frozen and the white icy frost didn't melt away until afternoon. With the leaves off most of the oak trees we can see across the canyon more clearly and yesterday for the first time Larry noticed that we could see traffic on I-80. So we spent time with the binoculars and Google Earth trying to figure out what point we were seeing...we figured it out finally and today we confirmed it.
The bucks were all together again yesterday and we met this pretty four pointer for the first time. Today it was the invasion of robins...they were everywhere and so noisy. They were eating the berries and on the ground scouting bugs and worms. They are funny to watch in the oak leaves on the ground. They flip the leaves to the side or fling them over their backs and then scrounge for whatever they exposed before it scurries away.
We took the scenic way into town up the Foresthill road along the river and over the very high bridge. We stopped at the nursery in Auburn to order Larry's Loquat tree for spring planting. It was warmer today with more rain tonight.
