As you might have guessed, "the Muse hasn't been around lately", and I guess I'm getting tired of dead grass, snow, and ice. But I did manage to take some pics in the last couple of weeks, so...
February 21- two Fridays ago...
 |
| Dashing thru the snow... ho-hum... |
 |
| You'd think it might be halfway warm- not so |
 |
| But enough to start the ice-melting process |
 |
| "Frozen over? Don't want nothin' to do with it." |
 |
| Big animal crossing on South canal... |
 |
| ...but Misty was interested in this one-tracker... probably it was a raccoon |
 |
| Why does my shadow look like the Michelin Man? |
Sunday the 23rd, we took the north loop...
 |
| ...I just couldn't shake the blues long enough to take pics... even when we found a nice pair of pants with a nice belt, along with a new-looking checkered shirt, buried in the snow. |
Monday the 24th it got warm enough to eliminate most of the snow...
 |
| Laurie going to work |
 |
| Mud-DY! |
 |
| Misty getting mad there's no snow to eat... |
 |
| ...Oh, wait |
 |
| Took this just to figure out what it was. Still don't know. |
Now we leap to this past Friday...
 |
| Warm, but windy in the extreme |
 |
| That's a plastic bag, clocked at 25 MPH |
 |
| That? No idea |
 |
| That's new |
 |
| Still not windy enough to discourage the discers |
 |
| That will give you an idea of the wind, even in the woods |
 |
| The one patch of snow left in Allen County |
 |
| Her ears pinned back by the wind |
 |
| Doggie ahead |
 |
| Time to go off roading |
 |
| Blowing so hard I almost missed the shot |
 |
| SOMEone had to jump in before we got to the landing |
 |
| ...as well as at the landing |
And that brings us to today- last chance for a walk without rain for the next couple of days
 |
| Though the clouds might make you wonder about today... |
 |
| We took the North loop again, just to see if anything new was happening- apparently not |
 |
| Windy again though, in spots |
 |
| First time we've been through most of a winter without this lightpole being clobbered twice |
 |
| However, for the second straight year, they did clobber the fence up by the road |
 |
| They took the bushhog to the Woodbridge side all the way up |
 |
| Another new bench. That outfit was gone, though. |
 |
| Surprised to hear the Redwings letting loose already |
 |
| Misty explores the latest section of bank sliding into the river |
 |
| Me and Scrappy used to cross here all the time- this is Misty's first, though |

Misty is lovely, glad to see you with a new (new to me at least..., been gone a while) canine friend. Our snow is melting, sadly. If I could control the weather, it would be winter for most of the year.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've seen your posts, but not commented b/c we are on opposite sides of the political spectrum. Not a big deal to me, but I wanted to respect your wishes. I was sorry to read about your travails, and am praying for the clouds to break for you.
