Waning Wolf moon

The waning Wolf moon on Saturday night. The first photo is identical to the second, only it has been cropped and sharpened, click on the images to make them larger...the first photo is amazing!

Bitter Cold!

Woke up to -21 degrees yesterday morning. Margaret filled a pitcher with boiling water and tossed it into the artic air.

Full moon!

Swimming!

In this frigid air, sometimes it is nice to take a break in the hot. Our overnight
temp dropped to -24 last night! We try to go swimming a couple times at month
at a local hotel that sells swim passes to the public. It is only open Mon-Thurs during
the day, so usually we have the place to ourselves.

Then we stop at DQ for a blizzard and fries!

Dinner one night last week..seafood stuffed mushrooms with bordelaise.
