So glad I took today off! Walked with Chris and Amy in the park and the day was gorgeous! #selfie #mildweather #winter #vacationday

Took this little doggy to the beach where she promptly jumped into the cold ocean. 😱 #dog #beach #snow

Found this (relatively big) guy on our ceiling today -- he probably hitched a ride on some of the wood from the basement. Chris threatened to smush him unless I put him outside. I'll probably never point out another spider inside to him again. #jumpingspider #doesntheknowitswinter #spiders

Morning on Long Island. Love em or hate em, the deer are part of the experience. #longislandwildlife #longisland #deer

Went looking for eagles this morning. Found all three, but they were way too far to get a good picture. Fortunately there were plenty of ducks close by. #morning #carmansriver #duck #brookhaven #longisland #longislandwildlife

Took Amy to the park today, where she yanked me to and fro, and where signs across the back trails warned about ongoing hunting in the area. Also got in an extra few thousand steps. #365project #fitbit #newyear #longisland #southaven #newyork
