BCA in the new year

 BCA - Boring Couple Alert.....

We had a pleasant Christmas by ourselves here in Beluga.    We had a pleasant week between Christmas and New Years here in Beluga.     We're having a pleasant beginning of the new year here in Beluga.     That's it.    We've done nothing, gone nowhere, seen nothing except what is in view of site 393.     See... boring couple.   

We've visited with a few friends and family via internet, shared a sweet Christmas Eve happy hour with Jesse and Erin, cooked a few interesting meals, drank a little wine and champagne, communed with the local bird community, enjoyed lively conversations at second cup and happy hour, walked around the campground, read.   Boring Couple.

Here are a few pictures from our boring, but pleasant and safe life.

Tom the Roadrunner (Peeping Tom that is....)



Lewis is a junkyard dog at heart...no matter how many mats and rugs we offer, he choses the dirt

playtime takes on a new dimension when one can't see the ball

Dave waited all year for me to finally make him deviled eggs!

Here's to a much better New Year for us all!

Stay tuned and be patient.   Perhaps we'll be able to do fabulous, interesting things in this new year!

  2. Considering the state of the world it takes a lot of thought and planning just to remain Safe. So your life is not as boring as you think it is.
    Wishing your gang a Safe, Healthy and Happy New Year.

    It's about time.

  3. You certainly have a beautiful spot to be bored in. Enjoy the sunshine, birds, hot creek and boring life ... looks a bit like paradise from our continued lockdown.
    Stay Safe! Happy New Year!

  4. We remind ourselves of that daily. If you have to sit still, this isn't a bad place!

  5. Yup - you're in a beautiful place to wait it all out. It could warm up a little here, but after watching the weather the east is getting it's all good.
    Happy Belated New Year!

    1. Happy Better Year to you and Jim! If we manage to get vaccinated perhaps we can have a socially distant visit with you in February!

  6. Peaceful sounds good to me. Your holiday celebrations look festive and cozy. Love Lew's 'fascinator' head piece. And I have that David Austin rose in our backyard in Ashland. :-) Happy New Year, and yes, here's to a much improved 2021 for us all. Hugs to you three!

    1. Lucky you! That rose is just so very intricate and beautiful. Lew does wear a fascinator well, doesn't he?

  7. I've re-read this a few times, and I'm still not finding the boring parts. Pretty things, tasty things, and a ribbon-festooned pooch. Sounds like paradise to me!

  8. Thor does the same thing. We put a dog bed down, he lays on the floor, we put a mat down, he lays on the pavement, we show him a spot of grass, he goes and finds the dirt. I've given up trying to find the logic. Happy New Year!!

    1. Lew asked me to use his photographs because he knew you'd be looking.....
      The moon picture was taken by Dave as he and Lewis went for their early morning walk, I love it.....

  10. Simple and safe certainly have their advantages these days...and I so agree with other comments that there is nothing boring about you, Dave and Lew! Your posts ALWAYS put a smile on our faces and warm thoughts in our hearts!
