I am tired of all this cold weather. It's going to be frigid here for the next few days. It's 4 degrees F now, and it's supposed to get a lot colder by tomorrow. So...here's a shot from this past summer. I felt warmer just looking at it.

For some reason when I look at this photo I get a mental image of you sitting on a riding mower, having just cut a nice swath out of the lakeside growth. Nice shot indeed and it does make one feel warmer somehow. :o)

I know what you mean Jim. It's nowhere near as cold as that here but it's dull, damp and they are saying it's going to be very windy in a few days (gusts up to 60mph), so it's good to think of the summer!

A very nice and "warm" scene well captured. The sky looks great and so do the trees. Good composition too.

Beautiful image, Jim, especially that super summer sky! We've got seventeen degrees at noon! Warmer days are coming. Al Gore said so and I believe him. Maybe we should enjoy the cold! lol
All the same, I won't mind a bit if you keep posting these warm and lovely scenes. :)

Will give you a good advice Jimbob. If the weather will be that bad the coming days as forecasted, you aren't able to go out to do some photo shooting. Maybe a good opportunity to lend our Owd Fellow Tick (OFT) a helping hand as his computer crashed today. But it's up to you of course, lol.
Thanks for this 'warm' shot my friend.
Regards, Cornelius.

I don't know if I would try the "winkles" for fishing that hole but if Dunsticking sends them they are quite tasty:)

It's in the Low 40's here Jim and I'm Freezing. It's the High Humidity here that's the Killer. Get's in your Bones.
Just 5 days ago we were topping 80. Winter time here is like a Roller Coaster Ride. Hot-Cold, Hot-Cold !
Summer here is like the Tropics, Sweat and Humidity Again. Then there's Gators, Skeeters, Hurricanes, etc, etc.

What The Hell am I doing here ? Gotta Move. LOL.
Thanks for the Excellent Image .

School has been cancelled tomorrow because of the cold weather JimboB. Means there will be some grandsons around to brighten my day. This shot of Aldrich Pond brightened my evening. Have a goodun'.

In case you hadn't heard, my computer crashed this morning. I thought the hard drive was fryed. My grandson is a computer whiz. He works for a company in Florida that helps with problems for people like me that don't know much. He walked me through the steps to repair the hard drive. Therefore I am back up and running. It truly does come down to who you know. You might see this message a lot because I am going to copy and paste as opposed to explaining it all every time.

Thanks for you understanding.
