Memorial Day Hike
Sunday, after dropping Savvy off at work, I decided I needed to get out and take a bit of a hike. Never mind it was a bit nippy and there was some 'snow showers' going on and off in the area. I haven't been outside for ages, just for a walk, and decided to take the camera and head out to the reservoir nearby. Unfortunately, while I had the directions to get there, I neglected to notice the mileage around the lake. But the 5.5 miles was worth it.
Other than someone ice fishing on the lake, I had the place to myself. And a few dozen Canadian Geese. And some mallards. And Northern Flickers and a flock of magpies.
But this is why I got engrossed in the walk and forgot about the distance, the cold and the time.
So the views around the lake are fantastic. I am in a 'bowl' and there are mountains all around. The lake is iced over and in the top picture you can see a guy in red out on the lake, fishing.
What a great day.
