A Cold Half Hour at the State Park

 Today at Seven Bends State Park


Today started off very cold so I stayed indoors until mid-afternoon. I did get some items crossed off my To Do List. Finally, the weather report said it was 40°F outside, but the windchill made it feel below freezing. It said the sun was about to come out from behind the clouds, so I took Charlie to the park. I drove across the low water bridge and arrived at 4 PM.


We took a short walk and the sun did come out, but it didn’t feel warm. 



Within a half hour, we were back in the car. I paused on the low water bridge for a moment to capture the reflections on the water.

  2. Oh yes, it looks like a cold day—but also beautiful! And Charlie was wearing a lovely coat—he must have enjoyed the walk! It's great that you captured the reflections on the water at the end!
