I woke up this morning to see large flakes of snow drifting down. The snow continued all day but didn't settle, finally turning to rain in the evening. So it was all indoor jobs today, a mixture of tidying, sewing and more wall repairs. I also finished cataloging my 2008 photos and have already made an initial selection for a photo book celebrating the best images over the year. (From last Sunday.) I find micro habitats and miniature plants fascinating. The biggest of these coastal plants growing on the cliffs were no more than an inch high. With a hand lens or even a keen eye there is so much detail to be seen in these tiny plants and the different lichens. These rocks, despite appearances were not vertical but horizontal ridges of slate that lead out into the sea.
