I actually put up lights this year. Well, I put a few on the various trees we have out in front. I also hung some icicle lights on the front fence and the fence on the east side. Interestingly, I also hung some old mixed with some new colored lights beneath the icicles. The new ones kept burning out fuses. When I wanted to use them, I just put in a new fuse. I think I put in about four new fuses. Perhaps, I attempted to plug in more than I should have. Hey, my philosophy is this: If you cannot plug in a series of lights, then they aren’t worth their wattage.

Winter has been a bit iffy in Cheyenne. We have had a bit of snow, but it has either blown away or melted. In this picture, I was able to capture one of the College’s squirrel in the act of eating red berries, perhaps in response to the holidays and their ubiquitous reference to red, red, red.
