Spring - Kind Of!

A lovely Friday off work! We walked the 3/4 mile down to the Hoback River to get a line wet yesterday afternoon! What a beautiful place. The dogs joined us and waited patiently. Just as we were about to declare the stream fish-less, Michael got one on the line! A cute trout got a sore lip and released back into the chilly water.

This morning's frosty 14 degree temperature has prompted indoor chores; cleaning, check book reconciliation, fish tank cleaning, ect. We wait for the temperature outside to increase. The garden is still frozen rock solid. This time of the year is a stand-still for so many projects. Waiting for the garden to thaw. Waiting for the temps to get decent to go horse back riding. Waiting for the lake to thaw to go fishing. One's life is in a state of anticipation, trying to best fill the time with what activities can be enjoyed!

I leave you with one more picture of the Hoback River area.
