Lots of things to do, not much time to waste either. A quickie today.






Absolutely brilliant.

  16. Its not priority always...we had a great day. Did you see the video clip, its a wood grouse flying. Now because of lots of snow many car accidents happen with roes and mooses because they rather go on the roads , its easier for them.
