SNOWSHOEING

SANDHILLS CRANES

These cranes are impressively big.  Their wingspans are about 6 feet and they make a very interesting sound.

SOLSTICE RIDE

We went out for nice ride last night to celebrate the Winter Solstice.  In true winter fashion is was snowing hard and it was cold.  But we were both feeling adventurous and needed some exercise.  The fresh snow was quite grippy and made it very quiet and peaceful.  The snow was coming down fast.  Within 20 minutes are tracks were completely filled in and by the time we woke up this morning there was about a foot of fresh powder.  Welcome winter!  And welcome longer days!
