Wacky Weather

January has been crazy as weather goes with rain early in the month, below 0 (-12) two weeks in and finishing with some freezing fog. The morning of this picture we had a birthday breakfast with our friends Lowell and Liz at the Trout House in Sunriver. This was taken from our table inside the restaurant and shows the Deschutes River still frozen. Note the trees on the far side where the freezing fog has them coated with ice from the day before.











These two are a couple of interesting photos Jane took. The cold dry weather does some strange things with water.


I took this one from in front of our house right before sunrise one morning and really liked it. Jane thought it looked like a forest fire.

We had the kids for Superbowl today so took some pictures and decided I would include some updates of the grandkids.

Of course Landon being youngest gets top billing and as you can see is feeling his oats.










He also gets two pictures. He seemed especially interested in my beard.

Lexy looks older by the day and Kendra will ham it up any chance she gets.

The last two of Landon I included because I liked them and I'm doing the post.

The wacky weather continues. Early Feb. at 4300 ft. in Central Oregon and on the north side of our house, the shady side where we still have ice and snow, at 2:30 p.m. today the thermometer read 62 degrees. I was in short sleeves!
I've been trying to get Jane to post but it has been like pulling teeth, not worth the pain. I'll try to get pictures up more often.
Love to all,
Marty
