Dream of Tufted Titmouse.
For the first time since I can remember, we’ll be getting a genuine white Christmas here on the 44th parallel. Six or eight inches of snow due tomorrow morning in a fast-moving nor’easter.
Today, in a chilly lull, dog and I hiked our hill, saw only distant flitting birds, and spent the rest of the day indoors.
Did have a dream about a titmouse, though.
