Change

is the law

of life.

~ J.F.K.

I was tempted to call the day moody.

Then I got scared that the entire new year would be moody so I chose to call it wild, exciting, and ever-changing. The sky was either beautiful blue or menacing black-gray.  The wind blew in hard from the southwest and the ice began to crack. M & I took a drive to the peninsula to see the results as the bay was opening fast. The ice was crushed and heaving on the North shore of the bay.

In places it looked like you had thrown a million sheets of plate glass down and then crushed them against one another.  The Lakeshore was blown clean down to the sand and was a virtual desert. If it was warmer you could imagine being in the Sahara in a sandstorm.  The weather was changing so quickly that the view in the rear-view mirror was a whole different day than what we saw out front.  When we got back home, the iceboats jumped into a pool of sunshine, only to be devoured moments later by a huge storm wall that ran perfectly parallel to the Shoreline.    Well,,,,, my camera is ready and I'm back. I hope 2011 is wild, exciting, and ever-changing!

Life is change.

Growth is optional.

Choose wisely.
