waiting for a blizzard

Every year this week we have a day where you can go outside in a light jacket followed by blizzard conditions the very next day. I know this because when I had my daughter on 2/26 I went to the hospital in a light jacket and came home in a winter parka. The following year on 2/21 I went to the hospital again in a light jacket and came home in a winter parka. Birthday week for my babies is always a weather roller coaster. This week -- not so much. I am not complaining -- I can survive without the blizzard.
We made it up to the 40's today. There must be a blizzard coming that the weather people don't know about.... it happens every February like clock work I tell you! Eleven years straight.... I better find my gloves again..... where is my long underwear....
This family looked like they were having so much fun last week -- who would think you'd see a family having so much fun on the frigid lake shore in FEBRUARY? I was happy for them.... and jealous as I went back to work that day...

I'm very much enjoying the frigid pictures. Frozen waves... well like you said, you can't tell where the ice stops and the water begins.

c-c-c-c--c-oool.

Think midwest Ruth!

I love taking photos on the lake shore but usually don't get to go there often enough... kind of a long drive.
