The Sun Was Warm

Lake Calhoun today. Walked lakes Harriet, Calhoun, and Isles. Everyone was so happy to be out in the warm sun.

Woke in the night and had to stand on the fresh snow in my bare feet and take pictures.

Put up the flag on this snowy Presidents Day. Next, I’ll walk in the snow–not many more chances for me this season.

Fire on ice tonight. The Minneapolis Loppet on Lake of the Isles.

Picked up coffee at Sebastian Joes at end of run. Tomorrow’s a good day for ice cream: 25% discount when it’s < -10F.

False dilemma: “The winters are too cold. Why don’t you move?” Here’s my reply.

Sunny winter’s day, a good day to walk on the squeaky sub-zero snow. Spotted a snow monster and a cyclist on the lake.

Ran around Lake of the Isles. Now, this is my preferred view until Wednesday when the high will next be above zero F.

Today, temperature soared to 18F so walked across Lake of the Isles and Lake Calhoun. Watched people ski-sailing.

First beer of 2014. New Year’s Day tradition: walk + lunch. Frigid weather = short walk.
