It's a Beautiful Day!
My heart is happy :)
Tom and I went snow shoeing Tuesday morning. And this time I brought the camera.
There was a song in my head and a need to just look up into the sky.
I said thanks more than once.
Happy Inauguration Day!
I also whispered something about "men" and "idiots".
In the same sentence and several times.
My idea of perfect Snowshoeing is to go forth and blaze a wonderful trail until you're half tired, turn around and enjoy the fruits of your labor: A nice groomed trail for homing. Since you're half tired, getting home is just the right distance and goes quicker than you think.
An idiot man declares at 20 minutes past half tired:
I know where we are!
It'll be quicker to go off into the deep woods, with no clear trail.
I can see the road!
Never mind that we're getting off the "interstate" of snowshoeing trails and taking the over grown "tote road". You'll need 4 wheel drive to get back to the main road after he finally acknowledges maybe we should turn around.
Gee, never done that before ;)

A beautiful day indeed--and what pretty area you went through. Just glad you made it back! Even if you were more than tired upon the return! ;)
