It was another beautiful freezing cold but sunny walk again this morning. Today it’s been all about the surface ice beginning to form along the shore by our home. This is a favourite mid-walk rest spot to take in this narrow part of the lake.
There is a sound unique to the lake at this time of year as it begins to ‘thicken’ with the small frozen particles slowly coming together to eventually cover the whole surface.
It fascinates me watching the seemingly small changes in the ‘lakescape’ each day that will cumulate in the birth of a completely frozen world.
I’ve spent most of the day on the computer preparing for some upcoming projects. Before I realized it, 5.00pm was staring me in the face and I felt the need for another breath of fresh air before making a start on dinner. So off I went to the post box to pick up the mail…that’s one good thing about community mailboxes; they get you outside. And because I was passing one of the docks and there was the makings of a beautiful sky, I had to stop once more.
