Now that the sun is starting to come up earlier in the mornings, the barn cats are often waiting on the hay bales on the south side of Lena's Barn to catch the first rays as the sun crests the ridge to the east of us. But this winter, what's been happening with annoying frequency is that just as the sun rises over the ridge … an ice-fog moves in and blocks the rays, putting us back into a bone-chilling mist. And then the fog hangs around for hours, so the day never warms up as much as it was forecast. Alayne got this photo the other morning of Skitter, one of our barn cats, who had positioned herself on the hay bales and was patiently waiting for the sun. Alas, as on many mornings before, the fog had moved in and wasn't lifting. By the time we finished morning chores, Skitter had given up and retreated to her heated igloo in the barn. Oh well. Better luck next time.
