Good morning,                                                     8:45AM
 
It’s currently 14 degrees and cloudy. Yesterday’s high was 20 degrees, with an overnight low of 6 degrees.
 
It appears that Hwy 441 is still closed due to ice and snow. Stay up to date here: https://goo.gl/HikrMr

Yesterday
 
I woke feeling heavy - extremely heavy. Someone must have tied an anchor to me in my sleep. The walk to the kitchen left me exhausted. I hobbled back to my loft and remained horizontal for the remainder of the day. The culprit was surely a combination of things. From long wet efforts in the mountains to visitors from different landscapes - I needed a rest.
 
Today
 
I woke feeling a far-cry better than the morning prior. Rested, I brewed a cup of green tea and looked through the photos I’d captured. The sunset from a day ago was still fresh on my mind. I settled on a couple photos that gave me that feeling of wonder, again. Reliving the moment, I was thankful for such beauty – even when I was down and out.
 
Onward,
Seth
