A walk in the sun
I'll be inside today, toiling for Taxaide, but yesterday I took a wonderful walk in the deep powdery fresh snow and sparkling sunshine. My dogs loved it, burrowing under the snow for voles (they didn't catch any) and bounding through the drifts. I loved being outside in the sun!
This is the Memory Isle Bridge. I'm not sure why it is called Memory Isle or what it commemorates, but the island in the Rocky River was created when a dam collapsed a very long time ago. The bridge is the only way on to the island. The picture I wish I had gotten was a long line of Canada geese sitting in the river, fifty or more, lined up facing me. Swimming regally past them was a swan, like a general reviewing the troops. Camera misfire!

Let's just commemorate the bridge and the generous sunshine. My dog would have loved this.
We've got just over an inch snow around Paris. CHAOS.
No sun so I'm really enjoying this one. Hope you're enjoying doing all that calculating (yuck).
It really is beautiful. Sunshine makes so much difference.

Well, you may have missed a photo opportunity, but this one will suffice perfectly! It does look like a gorgeous day...I like the red bridge...and the dog appears to be having great fun!
Wonderful wintery scenes on your blog.

The sun on the snow is very appealing.
I like your shadow in the corner taking the photo.
Post-card perfect!
I understand about camera miss fires! But truly this is a lovely photo!
I dont always comment but i am enjoying my little visits to yr blog. Mayb it is coz of the snow etc but mainly bcoz if u visit my blog, u wil realize our lives r so different n yet a little similar if one takes the trouble to look for similarities :)
Goodness, i dont know wat i am saying. Anyway, have a great weekend. :)
When I enlarged the picture, I could still see the geese and it really is a lovely scene! I think this picture is just about perfect. Love the red bridge!
I remember fondly most of my best pictures, the one that I have never taken! Surprise, problems with the camera, slowness... and the would be picture faded, changed and went away!

Snow and blue sky is such a lovely combination!
