Some light at the end of the tunnel. We should soon be allowed to have family around for food and conversation. Hopefully by the end of March I’ll be able to go to the shooting range again.

Lighter nights.
I saw this tree on my walk today. It appears to be dead but I expect it is teaming with insects, bugs and creepy-crawlies.
