My backyard on Christmas morning.  Believe it or not, I’m actually not behind with my photos, I just haven’t taken any recently.  Housework always dominates this time of year and, well, El Niño has made for a rather drab and uninspiring landscape.  (Though I DID spot something I want to try and catch, if I can find it occuring on a weekend, while I’m not working at the time…)

Haven’t decided whether to paint the mini-windmill or not.  It was a scrap metal-heap find, but as a whole, my philosophy is “embrace the rust.”
