Five Miles of Vitamin D

 
Today was even warmer, in the mid 40s and sunny. Had to walk. Went 5 miles and got a good dose of Vitamin D.

This is the frozen wetland around the corner from me. You can see my long shadow on the clump of cattails.



This old barn spoke to me.



Can you spot the creature with a white mustache? Maybe a lion.



The sun makes ordinary things, like a stubbled field, pretty.



And another sunrise picture from this morning. I'm just a sucker for the ones where the sun is a ball.



In other news: I wrote and edited and formatted pretty much all day except for the walk. What a project this book is! I SO underestimated how long it would take. Much longer than the first one. No clue why.

Bright and Smiling

 
The day was bright and I am smiling. Spent almost all of the time I was awake working on book formatting. That accomplishment report is over at the author blog. But I took a nice walk in the middle to stretch my muscles.

There's a little pond at the corner of First Street and Gordon Road. Sun on water sure looks good even if the water is small.





Found one plant trying to get with the springtime program. This is Vinca, myrtle, periwinkle.... whatever you call it.



Just a closeup of some bark on a Scots pine.



I caught this sight out of the corner of an eye and then worked to save it with the camera. The sunlight was making some of the twigs glow if you looked at it just right. They look like ice! I always like something a tiny bit different.


And then, there are always the beech leaves that hang on throughout the winter. I love how they are so pale and papery. I just find them attractive.


Fairly productive for a Saturday. I think I'm taking the party to bed really soon.
