It's the Weekend, it's the Weekend

The title makes it sound really exciting. It's not really. Husband and I did go out today, well he drove me. It rained all day yesterday and then the temperature dropped, and it turned to snow. That meant there was ice on the road underneath a layer of snow. Which absolutely messed up my plans. I hate to say it again, but I hate driving in the bad weather. I had planned - as the roads had finally cleared - to drive to South Haven to see some ice. Husband volunteered to drive me. I was glad he did! The roads were definitely icy until we got out of town and then they were fine. 

We got to South Haven and found out that several roads were closed due to a festival. We finally did meander our way down to the beach and I got out to take photos. It was cold, but really quite beautiful and peaceful. The chock-a-block ice that was as far as I could see last week, had broken up and I could see the water again. There was ice too. It looked really peaceful. I haven't sorted through the photos yet but I have a video. 



I could have stayed for ages (despite freezing fingers) but Saturday is usually a day for husband to relax and I was grateful for him driving me, so we went home. 

I can't say I did much the rest of the day. I went up in the craft room, looked around and left again. I took a nice warm bath too as I couldn't seem to get warm. 

It's supposed to snow tomorrow so I'm not sure what sort of Sunday Adventure we'll go on!

  3. The video is lovely! I hope your husband is feeling better. I heard on the news that your state is going to have some unusually warm temperatures, later this week, so, you might have some spring weather, soon. :)

    1. He's slowly feeling better. It was warmer today but foggy most of the day. The snow is melting again!

  4. That video is amazing! I couldn't even dream of driving that!

    Sending hugs. I failed with chilli plants yesterday. I'm not giving up, though, and I'm sending you 'keeping going in very small increments' vibes.

    1. It was interesting. Thanks. I think the keep going vibes are what I need! If I stop I don't know where to restart.
