Swirling Turquoise

Two walks today – a dog walk (half hour) and a Donna walk (half hour plus.) Total, about an hour. The sidewalks and paths are sheets of ice; not a problem as long as I wear my crampons. Regardless of what winter has done to our streets, Maggie enjoys any time outside, in particular the piles of chilled rabbit shit everywhere. After I dropped her off, I walked down the powerline into the ravine. The creek is quite beautiful, in shades of white and blue, with pockets of swirling, turquoise water. I was going to walk up the other hill, but the spikes were starting to make my feet ache.

It was -1C, but it felt cooler, but perfect. I am so grateful for all the sun.
