Ok Time is a major factor in keeping up in Spaces and that is something I seem to always be running out of. If I could make more of it I would, but then, where would I put it he he. Winter is on upon most of us, well at least above the 49th Parallel ans yes, even here on the West coast we are getting our taste of Jack, we have seen the other side of the zero, and even whiteness has touched us. Last weekend while heading out into the mountains, driving down the highwaycars were having a hard time staying on the road due to ice, but I kept a light foot and motored on only stopping to fuel up until civilization was behind me. Calmness is the first thing ya notice out in the snow, no sound, only a few birdssinging and the crunching of snow under feet. It was cold, but not unbearable refreshing. The weekend beforeI ened up working straight through the weekend without any days off so this was nice. I took a path way that took me out onto a bluff overlooking some marshland and I stood up on the bluff looking all around me, what a view. some of the ponds I came upon were totally frozen already, but still not safe for venturing on. One little lake that I came upon had a fair good path for walking around the lake and a little ways around came to a area that a stream was passing by and a wooden foot bridge. Nice area, took many photos, my lens kept wanting to fog up due to the coldness and running water. Found some areas that I want to further explore in coming weekends as long as we don't get too much snow. all for now,  keep warm
