Frosty…

This morning I braved the cold to take some pictures of the lake as the moon and the blue sky were poking through the clouds. Looking at the trees with the first dusting of snow on them, it’s hard to believe we were swimming here a week ago. I also was lucky enough to see a bald eagle hanging out, the first one I’ve ever seen in the wild. I wasn’t able to get a very good shot, but it was still pretty awesome. Amazing creatures. This is what living in the mountains is all about.

Kayaking

Ducks

Went out on the lake in kayaks to take some photos with Matt this morning, and caught up with this little gang of ducks. I know I say it all the time, but this is why I live here. Still busy as ever, but when you get to do things like this as part of the daily grind, it can’t be that bad.

This is why we live here…

I’m working late tonight, making some headway on a few projects (I know, it’s Saturday night, but sometimes you just have to suck it up and handle your business) and decided to take a little break to watch the sunset. Here’s what it looked like, just a block away from the front door… There are worse places to be.
