Aging

We've been aging around here.  Miss Elena celebrated a birthday.  Here she is with her new friends "paws" and "shiver".

Here she is showing off her new earrings.  So pretty!

And here's something else that is aging...our water barrels.  After many years of service, this barrel split this winter.  We usually open these and drain them, so we think this one's drain spout froze shut, filling the barrel, which eventually froze.

Here's a deep look into the crevasse.  Ice is impressive!
