Ice, Ice and more ice

Brrrrrrrrrrr.....it's been very cold here lately in the Oregon area like everywhere...we've had ice with some wind chills as low as 6 degrees the other day, but it's still so pretty outside when the sun makes it through the crisp and cold.  Perfect soup weather!

 I got a kick today, I was working in my studio and noticed that lots of Robins were landing

in our Mountain Ash tree...they loveeee........the berries ...then they stammer around...its quite cute! 

Fun day of Arts and Crafts here in the Eugene area..."Come and Play"

I came across this wonderful and fun site the other day, and it's right here in Eugene!
Arts and Crafts and a bazaar all going on...I can't wait.   So, if you happen to be in the Eugene area...check it out!
