I was hoping for a restful quiet day yesterday - with over a foot of snow - but we have had so many snow days this winter that most of the schools just delayed opening - which meant I still had to go into work - it just took twice as long. We did have four healthy LARGE (very well fed in appearance) deer browsing in our yard - for some reason this year they are going after all our low growing evergreens, the rhodies and azealeas. Though the pines and spruces have many branches within thier reach they seem to prefer the junipers.

The cats had a little visit with one of our two regular coon visitors last night - it was the elder and larger of the two coons who come by - She and the two cats sat together on the porch. they don't bother each other unless the cat's food dish happens to be outside (which is only in good weather). don't know where the young male is that we've seen off and on.
