Lovely winter's day on the farm, which fittingly rounds off another productive, plentiful year. Peace and happiness for the seasons to come.

By the barn
The animals don't venture too far from their hay racks at this time of year, except for when Mia antagonizes the lambs or calf into a bit of frolicking.
Ski tracks
The ski trails are well-tamped down through the fields and wetlands, but there is still not enough snow back along the old woods road yet.
Skeena
Got away from the farm a few times this past summer, long enough to explore some more of the wild and wonderful 'river of mist' that flows through these lands. The pristine Skeena watershed is under threat from Shell's coal-bed methane fracking plans upstream and Enbridge's tar sands bitumen pipe-dream downstream.
Last Blossoms
Some of the last blossoms of summer, which I fleetingly enjoyed during the busy harvest. The artichoke buds did not bloom, yet were still enjoyed at the table.
Farmers’ Market
The market display is a lot of fun at this time of year when there's lots of colours to play with.
