Tannenbaum:
[German: tah-nuh n-boum; English: tan-uh n-boum]
noun
1. a Christmas tree.

Snow? On Christmas Eve Day? Well, better head out to Mer Bleue to feed the birds and walk the trails!
The roads were surprisingly empty of cars early this morning, probably because people were gathered at malls to get their last minute shopping done.
But luckily for me, I finished all my shopping earlier in the week, even managed to finish my wrapping too, so today, with only a few things that needed doing, I decided to take some time to myself and walk in the snow.
The temperatures were mild and the snow made the woods seem a little more mystical than usual so I walked further than I should have and when I got back to the parking lot, I got a tip about a porcupine in a tree and set back out looking for him.
He had moved on, but the extra hour walking was nice. My legs aren't too happy about walking so long in knee high (in many places) snow, but that's okay. A good workout won't hurt me!
Hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas Eve!
