Nice walking weather

My walking friend and I got out for another three mile walk in the Wetlands. We were surprised to see this heron in this pond.  We now have 100 miles in for the year, so should get our reward, a coffee cup I think, in January. 

This pond has been cleaned out of the reeds, nice blue sky that day. 
Just a few mallards in the river. By this time last year there were all kinds of waterfowl there. Only a few ducks and coots this year. 
Looking towards The Strip and the snow on the mountains. Been warm lately and snow is melting, the ski places are open. Guess they'll have to make snow. 
The river has a lot of water in it now. No birds. 
Also lots of trash from the heavy rains we had a couple of weeks ago. The one over the rock is a mattress. All kinds of crap for town and tunnels ends up here. 
I mentioned the beaver keep trying to build a dam in this spot. This day we saw the guy taking down one beavers were trying to build. First they put mud there then the reeds and tree branches. We told him he should leave it alone. No answer. 
More of the Sphere 
Different.
And now they are starting on Christmas and Winter scenes. The bottom one stays here with us. 
All five quilts are done, In a box ready to be shipped. Now I'm starting on some embroidered Christmas for me. 
Son just called and said he is sending his ladies to clean our house. Goody, goody!!! There are bits and pieces of sewing thread all over the place.
