When Water Turns To Ice

That is when the cold has arrived. Unlike the last couple of winters the cold this time around was slow in coming.  It is also not nearly as COLD (so far) as it was last year....... can't say that we mind.  But it is far from over, the winter season.

Back home we go after a long brisk outing.  Picking up some "Fat Tuesday Buns" to be enjoyed with a cup of coffee upon our return.  Realizing we should have walked twice as far and twice as fast to make up for the calorie in calorie out quotient............ but what the heck,
