Tulip bulbs

Neglected to get these into the ground before winter. Hopefully it's not too late.

Pearl Harbor

Excellent memorial and museum - like the opening chapter of a WWII history tour, for which we'd already seen the conclusion at the Peace Museum in Hiroshima.

Lady & Mo

Lady thinks she can sneak up onto the couch because she's camouflaged.
Mo is totally hypnotised after having her belly rubbed.

Thanksgiving

A full house for Thanksgiving, with Pete's dad, Mike, Suzanne, 3 little people and 2 furry four-legged people here to visit (where visit means help on house projects).
Turkey: perfectly golden brown courtesy of its cheesecloth blanket.

Insert Fireplace Insert

So the house came with a fireplace but the chimney sweep informed us that we needed to line the flue before lighting up.... So we installed a new flue AND a new fireplace. It's an energy efficient insert - so we qualify for a tax rebate :) . It took quite a search to find one that would fit into our mantle (but not in a log cabin) - european of course.
