What's snew, you ask? Not much, what's snew with you? Ugh, pre-coffee. Woke to 2" of snow yesterday, the first of the year. Pretty, at least on a Sunday when it minimizes the disruption it causes. West coasters are not great winter people. The ordinarily quiet estuary was almost eerie in its silence.

As the name implies this is indeed the first or last house in mainland Great Britain depending on whether you’re entering or leaving....

The image:A 2.5 second exposure.
Straight down the middle wooden Groyne..a low down structure built out from the coast into the sea to prevent the repeated movement of the waves from removing parts of the land.
These two have chosen a lovely spot overlooking the valley for the scene of their budding romance.

There were two light snowfalls on the last few days. It wasn't enough for the snow to stay in any way but during the minus temperatures I could take some photos of frozen plants.

We have moved and this was our first morning walk. The cats settled straight away so I was happy letting them out, we had a walk around and then it was straight back into unpacking.
Hopefully will try and catch up with you all and get into my flickr routine once I have settled properly. Still have to go back and clean up other property and collect horses which will happen this weekend.
Squirt is fitting in really well by the way and will add some photos soon.

First London
Scania CN230UD OmniCity
SN36054 - YR61 RUC
Seen on route 207 at the Hayes By-Pass terminus.
A little throwback to December 2012 and the rather short-lived (in London at least) 61-reg batch of Scania OmniCitys which replaced the bendy buses on route 207.
This is a picture I took of my first grandson within one minute of his birth since his mom, my oldest son's wife--my sweet daughter-in-law, asked me (along with her husband and my other daughter-in-law) to stay in the room with her while she delivered. Her mom couldn't be there because she went into labor before her mom's flight arrived. Meanwhile, my husband was rushing to the airport two hours away to pick her up and bring her to the hospital. They both arrived, if I remember right, within a minute of his being born. When they came in, he was just being put under this golden heating lamp.
The lighting in the photo was all the original lighting. I did, however, crop it a bit and clone out a couple of items that were problematic. Those are his actual footprints, resized of course. I just had to include them because they were so cute. Normally it's a difficult thing to take a picture of a newborn, let alone a naturally born baby, and have it turn out making him look great. But he was easy. It was actually hard to take a bad picture of him right after he was born. He was absolutely adorable. It makes me wonder if this is what it means in the Bible when it talks about Moses having unusual beauty as a baby.
You can see that he was very aware. What you can't see is that he was looking directly into the eyes of all of us when we held him and spoke to him. Like his dad, he was able to hold his head up (freakishly, lol) at birth and ever after that. It was all completely mind-blowing. At this point, he was looking over toward his mom with wonder in that very precious infant way.
I have to say that there's nothing like watching one's own grand baby be born or at least getting to see him/her within a couple of moments after his/her birth. This was one of those spectacular moments the Lord shares with us that was allowed to be caught on camera. Hope you enjoy it. *Smile*
The passage displayed in the above picture is Luke 18:16-17: "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these" (1984 NIV).
