Good 26º frozen pretty clear sky morning!
First thing today the geese were flying overhead and honking and honking.
I looked out and there were two coyotes wayyyyy up in my pasture....
After they saw me they headed up towards the BLM and the geese landed on the barn roof.
Yesterday the sun came out! By late afternoon we had warmed to 60º. Down in the other pasture was a deer munching on the grass...
Beware of phone scams. I have received numerous calls from what looks like local numbers, area code same and prefix the same. Also calls from a Portland area code. Here are two warning videos... both very short...
This is interesting about ravens....

National Almond Day
Friends who lived in Chico California always pronounced almonds as amonds, without the L. They said when the almonds were harvested a machine was strapped to the tree and shook it really hard so they fell to the ground. As the saying went, "the L was knocked out of them." LOL

Whether you are eating them by themselves, using almond milk, pasta, flour, butter, oil or meal, almonds offer a delicious flavor along with many health benefits. Almonds are one of the most heart-healthy foods on the market, packed with vitamin E, magnesium and fiber.
- According to a survey of 500 health professionals, almonds may be beneficial to a healthy lifestyle.
- According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, “Scientific evidence suggests, but does not prove that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts, such as almonds, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.”
- Recent research from Purdue University suggests that eating almonds can help people feel satisfied for several hours, which can support weight management and counter weight gain.
- Eighty percent of the world’s almonds are grown in California.
