Snow Falling on Lake

Walked round Cedar Lake, light snow falling.

Today’s low is -11F. Brightened things up by switching on the holiday lights for the first time this season.

Walked to Downtown Target to start and almost complete Christmas shopping: gift cards for mail carrier, etc.

Good weather today for hanging lights outside. Replaced 19 bulbs. We’ll switch the lights on closer to the Holidays.

Cooked Thanksgiving dinner: braised turkey, stuffing, the works. Great company. Now the easy bit: washing dishes.

Walked round Lake Calhoun today. Watched geese ready to escape from encroaching ice.

Willow on running route today. Heard otherworldy squeaks when the breeze shifted ice forming on Lake of the Isles.

Foraged for essential ingredient for the holidays at Lunds, Uptown. Pie crust will be from scratch–thanks, Dwight.

Long shadows. Hit 57 degrees today: a day to be outside, exploring. Best to defer work and chores for another day.

Near Stone Arch Bridge today.
