Morning After

Trying to walk off yesterday's food binge, I went out the the Red Cedar River this morning. In otherwise untracked snow I saw these deer tracks on the sidewalk alongside the river.

Even in Michigan where people are used to the cold, there was only one other person willing to brave the sub-freezing chill.


 The temperature has been in the low 20s F. the past three days. The river still flows freely, but there are many patches of ice on the water.

Branches from an overhanging Willow dip into the water to provide a surface where ice crystals form. They appear as  brushes recharging from an artist's palette.
