Polar Vortex ~ Day 2

We are in day 2 of a Polar Vortex.  Simply put, 

a polar vortex is when the freezing arctic air 

decides to head south for a while and thus sends

us into a state of cold that we rarely experience.

Thankfully, we are in a warm house that is well

stocked with food.  We have a bit of cabin fever

but have watched marathons of The Tudors and

Law & Order SVU.  When we send Mia the Wonder

Dog outside she starts to limp after a few minutes.

We feel so sorry for the poor animals who have to

suffer in the bitter cold and wind.  We give them food 

and hope they can keep warm enough to survive.  The 

photo above is of one of our birds who has fluffed up 

his feathers to conserve body heat.  

Looking forward to a warm up!
