But I couldn't wait. I thought I could, but when it was 27 degrees F, I drove over to Flat Creek to see how the ice situation was with water on rocks. It did not disappoint. But I discovered my teeth were cold, even with my mouth closed. I have become so used to wearing a mask, which kept my mouth and nose quite warm! This was a brief trip, barely across the bridge and down to the bank of the creek.
Today's quote:
Hello,
ReplyDeleteThe views of the icy lake and river are pretty. I am glad it is warming up now. Take care, have a great day and week ahead!
I love the impermanence of ice (or snow) whenever it happens.
Delete...the icey stream is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tom, I was thrilled that it looked so nice right there by the bridge. I knew there was a little waterfall/cascade at the end of the trail, but didn't have the breath to go that far.
DeleteThe mixture of ice and water is attractive.
ReplyDeleteAnd as I posted all of these, I thought how you would have narrowed it down to one or two views!
DeleteI love seeing the ice in the creek there. It's so beautiful. Thank you for braving the cold for these photos.
ReplyDeleteI do like still being able to go see some beautiful things in nature. It's sad to finally live in the mountains and not be able to hike due to breathing difficulties. But there are still many lovely things to see!
DeleteSo picture worthy! I wanted to take a few today but hubby was driving and doesn't want to stop as often as I do.
ReplyDeleteI love to see images of winter from northern hemisphere when we are in summer Australia. So thankyou. and Thankyou for visiting my blog this week. It was great to meet you. Ah, a positive of wearing a mask, keeping mouth and nose warm. Enjoy the rest of your week and 2023.
ReplyDeleteThat looks cold! It’s been the same way here.
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty sight.
