| Sunrise from my front porch |
This morning was overcast and the wind blew lightly as I headed out to Lake Padden for our walk with the ladies (and one man). The temperature was moderate, but then the wind started, and we quickly bundled up before starting our walk. Occasionally the sun came out, but the skies changed back and forth from overcast to almost full sun, as the clouds scudded across the sky. We got in two times around the lake, just over five miles.
We have a gale warning in place; the north-northeast wind is bringing cold air from the Fraser Valley right into our homes. Windows that were open and inviting the outdoors inside yesterday are all closed, and I've placed my many heavy rocks on the rugs to hold the front porch together until this latest weather event has passed.
Fortunately for me, there's nowhere I need to go for the rest of the day, so I'll stay inside with a good book and enjoy a day to putter around the house aimlessly.

That is a glorious sunrise. Ours, just gone, was grey. I hope you enjoy your totally deserved quiet(ish) day, and impressed at the early morning walk.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sky.
ReplyDeleteI rarely see sunrise. Night owl me is always up too late. Beautiful sky!
ReplyDeleteIt was late afternoon before I got my walk in today. Tom has been productive outside but I have diddled away the day - because I can! It sure has turned cold - 4 this morning after the sun was up.
ReplyDeleteWe have a very nasty piece of weather right now. It's cold...minus 2 windy and a bit snowy. I cancelled my bird watching today.
ReplyDeleteWe love looking at the skies too. I hope the weather won't be too wild for you. I could use a cool breeze now though.
ReplyDeleteThose are the best kinda days! And your sunrise image is beautiful! Putting on a jacket...hmmmm, what that must feel like...it's been a LONG HOT summer. I'd like a day of wearing a coat!
ReplyDeleteJust . . . wow!
ReplyDeleteWe are still having 92 degree weather and have the AC on most of the time. Normally, the temperature would be 85.
ReplyDeleteBeen hearing that half your state has been hit by winter storms. Yikes that is early isn't it? Anyway glad you have bunches of heavy socks. Stay warm and snuggle up with a good book.
