~ Calm. Cool. Collected. ~

    

Today was a good day.  I was a bit disappointed that Steve and I couldn't get together, but what can you do?  He and I will do something at some point, I am not worried.  It was absolutely beautiful out today.  It got pretty warm, and the sun was out a good portion of the day.  I was hoping I could get a few good sunset shots down at the lake but that didn't happen.  After dinner I did take a ride but the closer I got the more clouds there were.  I was thrilled that I wore my winter jacket.  As you may be able to tell there is still lots of ice on the lake, and the wind blowing in off it was cold!!  It wasn't long and my hands were like ice.  I got a few sky shots, and then I happened to notice ducks in the water.  :::shiver:::  Spring or not that water is cold!!!  They were pretty far away but I was able to zoom in and get a couple shots.  See how cold the water is?  Their 'hair' is standing on end.  I waited a bit to get some different shots but the clouds decided it was time for me to go.  Thought I'd share a couple. 

 

On the drive home I decided I had my sweet tooth back and I was going to splurge a bit.  So I took a little detour and stopped at the corner Ice Cream stand.  I couldn't believe the people there.  It was nice to see actually, but I must have looked like a fool.  Here you have shorts, T-shirts, skirts, little sweaters, and here comes me with my winter coat.  No funny looks, but damn I was way over dressed for ice cream.  Not just your normal ice cream either.  My sister was home so I decided to treat her too.  I got two banana splits!  OMG they tasted great!!  My hands are still a bit cold, but well worth it.

My hips can complain later.

 

Only a couple of graphics tonight.  Yes, even a water one.  LOL  I was playing and the more I did the more I liked.  Maybe it's me.........  I love the water and any type of boat just makes me feel so relaxed.  Since I'm feeling calm cool and collected I thought it was appropriate.  I've seen variations of 'spring' around.  I tried to change it enough so it didn't look like I everyone else's.  Not sure if I succeeded, but I gave it a shot. 

 

I have a few alerts to get to, then it's off to bed.  Yes Bill, an early night.  Well, I say that now but who knows what will happen.  Thank you all for the wonderful wishes.  I got several cards in the mail, e-cards, and comments.  I so appreciate the wishes and good thoughts.  Maybe I'll just sleep through tomorrow.  LOL

 

I hope a good Monday follows a wonderful Sunday.

 

Hugs
