Today's Walk

I walked to Kalee's school today to pick her up at 1pm. The 25 minute walk gets me out in the mid-day sun to soak up some good rays, especially on a day like today - crisp, cold (9F) and clear. Not a hint of wind (there is very little wind here, which makes the cold temperatures much more bearable).

This is the sun over the lake at noon. Just over the tips of the trees. Over the next three hours it will move horizontally until it dips below the tree tops again. And this is my shadow at noon.Are you laughing yet? I am.

Monday and Tuesday were WARM here, up to 30F. Then the temperature dropped and all the humidity froze onto the trees, leaving everything covered with a layer of frost. Really beautiful.This is a sculpture in the middle of the traffic circle at the end of our street, frost covered trees glistening in the sun in the background. And here is the sunset reflected in the eastern sky. What time is it? 3:30pm.
