We have packs of coyotes less than 100 metres outside our bedroom window every night. I hear them traversing west to east, and then a few hours later, east to west.
Orthodox Christmas was just yesterday, and today is a very sentimental day for me, so the stuff all stays up at least until the 9th. The year my dad was ill, it stayed up until March some time.No, everything came down on New Year's Day. I get sad seeing it after that, as it only reminds me that Christmas is over and won't be back for a whole year . . .

Maybe this weekend. Maybe not.
Yes, my tree is artificial. I don't like real ones, primarily because of the mess and the fire hazard.
Right now they are outside, but we will bring them all inside tonight because it will be below 0 with strong winds. They do eat more to stay warm! We put out 1,000 pound round bales of grass hay for them to eat and there is a heated waterer outside for them. When we bring them inside, they each have their own stall with a heated water bucket and they get flakes of hay to munch on. We never tried hot chocolate with them, but they are always trying to drink our coffee!@Wrangler-Rick , how do you care for the horses when it gets down to below zero weather? Do they go out as much and run around, or do you keep them more inside (similar to dogs when it's extremely low temps, except for maybe Mals, Huskies, and Samoyeds, who were bred for colder climates). Do they eat more to keep warm, and do you warm up their water? Do they like hot chocolate with marshmallows melted in?
Holly is all of 7 lbs, and more than 12 years old. She is not a fan of these temps.@donaldtoo , how are Ranger and Belle in your somewhat colder weather? Do they enjoy it, or are they hot weather dogs? My dog is a wuss; he wants no part of colder weather at all. Basically, he just likes to stay inside with us and get into mischief. He gets all out of sorts when one of us is not home; he'll often wait and stare at the front window until we come home. Then he gets all excited again, runs around and acts double crazy to celebrate that the pack is all here together!
I'm not sure if this has already been asked - how many horses do you have? And what do you do with them?Right now they are outside, but we will bring them all inside tonight because it will be below 0 with strong winds. They do eat more to stay warm!
