I need another mug of coffee, my second. I think I will go make one and take Sera outside to eliminate. It looks cold outside, so we will not be long.
OK, so I took her out and she peed. I am right — it is cold… but not too cold. Winter is good. The snow provides snowpack in the mountains and that means water in the spring and early summer. The cold reduces the insect population and helps maintain the ecosystem that I so enjoy here in the high desert. The capture is from Thursday morning when we had snow. I used the Sony A7iii and a new-to-me Olympus Zuiko 50mm f/1.2 at f/5.6 as I recall. It was quite early so there was not a lot of light. I had to bring up the exposure slightly and made the edit in my iPhone with Snapseed.
And… I have another mug of Joe. That makes for a good morning.
We had a good snow this week with five inches or so here in Carson and several feet in the high Sierra. Much of the snow in the valleys is already melted. That means some ice on the roads, but I do not plan to drive much today. I do see a grocery run in my day and I will probably have supper with an old friend.
I see a workout and a walk also in my day. I have a few chores on my to-do list as well. I think I will enjoy my coffee and then get on with it.
Life is good.
