| My shadow on the rocks and patterned frozen lake.. |
 |
| Our beach, around the bend...kayaked around here just a few short months ago... |
 |
| Around the bend, our spot.. |
 |
| Afternoon light cast long shadows.. |
 |
| The lone man, getting ready to ice fish.. |
 |
| From above, the frozen Marina... |
 |
| Amazing, ever changing patterns.. |
Having cruised through Chanukah, birthdays, lovely company,Christmas and the New Year, gratefully, without getting caught up in the madness, we step right into the first Monday of 2016. It has been brutally cold in Colorado. As hot as it was this Summer past, and impossible as it was to walk outside, that is exactly how cold it has been. Yesterday, and the day before we warmed up to a balmy 45, which at a mile high, feels like 65 degrees. I knew that our lake @ the ever beautiful Cherry Creek State Park, would be frozen over, and a playground for taking pics. So, off we went for a very long walk around and ON the lake, with warm memories of Summer, kayaking, lazy afternoons listening to the sequoias sing their songs, feet dangling in the cool waters for some relief from the heat.
We know that there are difficult days ahead, as the world, planet Earth, feels at times like it is spinning off its axis. We all see it unfold before our eyes, everyday. I pray that those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, will keep precious oil in their lamps, and pray for those who do not, as we step right into the first Monday of 2016.
'Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.'
Psalms 119:105
