Blood Moon

So, I am disappointed to say.... no pictures today. :( None that I took anyway. Ahem, so many might know what a Blood Moon is and many might be saying, "Is that a real thing?!" Like I did before I knew what it was. A Blood Moon is when the earth is right in between the sun and the moon. the sun shines right through the atmosphere of earth and makes the moon glow red. It has happened only three times in the last 500 years. Here's a pic I found:

Interesting, eh? Another interesting thing that going to happen in 2014 is a phenomenon. Its like this:

Meeting Milo

Oops... again I have not written a blog post since who knows when!! But I have been taking pictures. Lots and lots of pictures. :) So the snow is melting v-e-r-y slowly. The odd time we get one whole day of rain. And when it does rain, oh does it ever rain hard. Most of the time the sun is out, blue sky everywhere. I have to say; I am starting to uh, dislike, lets say, the snow. I want to see the grass, and the nice warm air at the beach. But I don't think the snow wants to leave yet. Right now people are saying that the lake is supposed to unfreeze in August!! I really don’t want to have to wait till then... Anyway, for a couple weeks now, we have been taking care of my grandparents' dog:

Cute, eh? Well this little guy is named Milo. And little Milo likes to eat (blech) the compost. He runs all the way to the back of the yard. When we empty the compost from our house, we bring it behind the  fence and dump it in a little box we have made using four skids. By the way, I have no clue how he is able to eat it. Nor do I want to know! Anyway lets just say he brought it back up today. <:P Gross. Gross. Gross. So today I decided to do something so he doesn't get to the compost. I took a bunch of chicken wire and stretched it out in the middle of our yard, from one side of our yard to the other. Then I went to the back of the yard and put some there too. I know it sounds evil but it has helped.

(I apologize that I have no pictures of the little cage I made)

After that he and I went back outside and took a bunch of pics. I was glad of how the turned out. :) He was surprisingly still! Here you go and see you later!! (let's hope not too much later)

Beautiful Sunset

Tonight I went to our public beach to take, once again, photos! I haven't taken any pictures of the sunset at the lake yet so I hope you enjoy. I am so happy with how they turned out. :)

Such an Awesome Afternoon

Today I went to a provincial park to take pictures of the birds. I took pictures and fed the birds, much my content. On the way back I got some pics of the sun. Enjoy!!

Fun In Sochi

As most of you know, right now in Sochi the winter Olympics are being held. Norway in the lead with medals at 11, four in gold, three in silver, and four in bronze. Second is Canada!! :D YAY! They have been doing so well, so proud of them. :) We (Canada) have nine medals in total, four gold, three silver, and two bronze. I was around town and passed a local grocery store. We have massive piles of snow here in southern Canada and when the snowplows clear the parking lots huge mounds of snow are pushed in the far corners. Someone came around and spray painted this on one of the hills. LOVE IT!! The second picture is of an amazing story some of you might have heard of. A Russian skier had broken his ski and a Canadian coach came and gave him a new one. Lover the sportsmanship. Good work!! :)

Rose

I can't believe I haven't ever talked about my adorable rabbit, Rose. I have had for nine great years since I was just a kid and Rose was a little white ball of fluff. :) She is a Mini-Rex rabbit and they are usually very small even when the grow old like my rabbit. :)

The other day I decided to give her a little bath. Bad idea. If you have a rabbit like mine, giving a bunny a bath is exciting but by the end of it, you'll be soaked from head to toe. Rose hates them and tries to jump out of the tub. Of course I have my hands around her so her huge feet hit the water instead of the bottom of the bathtub. Anyway so after I took her out of the bath, I set her on a towel. Later I picked her up and she kind of squirmed as I did so. Then I saw something on her foot. She is white so anything is visible on her fur. So I looked at her foot and saw a little bit of blood. I was kinda shocked so gently touched where it was bleeding. She squirmed again I helped her foot then brought her down to the living room. I settled down in one of the chairs, grabbed a hot chocolate and held the rabbit in my arms, gently stroking her head. Here's some adorable pictures I got of her. :) She did fall asleep at one point. SO CUTE!!

Here's some pics when I put her in the basement. It's so cute, cause she just jumps up the stairs! :)

2014

Ok, to begin with, how was your Christmas? And second, Happy 2014! I am very excited for this year for numerous reasons but one mostly. I have a picture here to show you what it is. :) Anyway I'd love to share some of my own pictures but sadly my computer is taking a really long time uploading the pictures from my camera. By the time they'll be done I will have uploaded them onto my other blog. So here's the link to go check them out. :)  http://eplchelsea.blogspot.ca/
