Happy Happy 2008!!



Well, it seems like everyone has one of these bloggers, so we decided to jump on the bandwagon. Bear with me while I try to sort out how everything works here.

We make our home in Alberta, Canada and share our little house with a variety of fur kids - three dogs (Kishi, Hoochie & Mischief) and 2 cats (Moe & Whisper). It's a bit of a zoo really, but we love animals and take great joy in their presence in our home. Dan has been a finishing carpenter for many years, although he's semi-retired now due to some back issues. For the past several years, I've been selling books & collectibles via the internet. I have my own website, as well as selling on ebay, amazon, etc. Due to work, we spend most of our time in the city, but we also have a small, remote acreage on the North Saskatchewan river and we get out there every chance we get. The dogs would be happier living out there, but the time is not right yet!

It's an extremely balmy winter day here in Alberta, with the temperature sitting around 0 celsius (or 32 Fahreinheit for you Americans)...... in January yet!! Our normal winter temperature for this time of year would be aboout 20-30 degrees colder - so this doesn't bode well for Febrary & March! Winter does not skip Alberta so the very cold weather is yet to come, that's my prediction.

As you can see, winter has not entirely passed us by!
