We learned a new phrase in the weather this year and we finally got out of those bitter cold temperatures. I was able to get out in the woods for a 2 1/2 hour walk this week. It was so nice to spend time out in nature and soak up some of the wonderful rays of sunlight. I had been walking with my Mom's Lunch group at an indoor track because of the extreme cold. It has been rejuvenating to be able to get out and spend time in the woods. They are calling for another polar vortex to descend upon us next week so I had better plan on another hike early in the week. Hope the New Year is treating you as well as it is me. We have started to book our adventures for this year. I am being very optimistic that we will have an early spring so we can get on the road again. Oh, only 7 more weeks till our granddaughter arrives!!! :o}
