Saturday

It was a cold day today. I wasn't sure I would be going out or for how long as it was quite windy. I did go out and have a walk. The sun came out at one point which was a nice surprise as the forecast looked pretty bleak. It was nice and quiet at Asylum Lake. The beavers were out too which surprised me as they sometimes don't come out so much when it's windy. The lake has started to freeze over again and it's always fun to see them popping up through the holes they keep open. 

Husband and I went to a couple of places when I got back. He had gone out with his dad for breakfast. He's trying to do more with his dad. He does ring him every day and visits when he can (work is busy). When husband talked to his dad on Friday, he said he hadn't been out and husband said he sounded a bit lonely, so I suggested a breakfast. They both enjoyed it. 

This afternoon was a little bit lazy - some relaxing, some sorting, some tidying, a nice bath and a bit of Asylum Lake stuff. It was nice to be inside as temps are a little low. 

Husband and I will be going out tomorrow but - once again - the place I would like to go to (put off from last week), is proving to be elusive and quite a bit of snow is forecast for that area, so we won't be travelling that way. Oh well. Perhaps it's just as well. We are off on a mini break from Thursday to Sunday next week. We are going to Minnesota, not to visit daughter, but with a friend couple to visit Sax-Zim Bog, a well-known nature place. It should be fun and extremely cold! As this requires a lot of driving, it's probably good not to go too far this weekend.
