Winter is breaking up with me again. She says she needs a rest from our relationship. She does this every year and breaks my heart. I should just move far away to someplace where she never shows up.....but I can't because I'm crazy about her. She'll be back...... I'll just wait. Sighhhhh

After an all day rain I was hoping for a bit of fog to add interest for this harbor scene. Unfortunately, as night fell, the fog dissipated and along with it, so did my imagined composition. Not wanting to leave with an empty memory card, I did grab a few shots of the ice breakup before it got too dark.

A year after we received Sara in our house, today she was adopted and left us. We will miss her a lot, but I hope she will be happy with her new family

Every year the bean geese from Siberia come to us in the lower Rhine region of Germany for overwintering here.

There is a steady drip-drip-drip falling from our cabin roof, as the sun melts the snow that remains above us. The temperature's actually reach into the low forties as a daytime high and drop down into the twenties at night. The rivers are breaking up, and the inevitable potholes that dot our roadways have appeared, keeping drivers on their toes.

Doc and I sat on our porch this morning and watched as the mature camp robbers (gray jays) grabbed mouthfuls of suet and fed their little ones. A playful ermine darted about, taking a rest every now and then - on top of our truck tires - while round about him two squirrels were feeling amorous and were running up and down the tree trunks of the large willow trees just outside of our cabin.

I am sure the bears are waking up now, and introducing their newborns to the magical world outside of their dark and musky winter dens. We will now be on the lookout for new tracks left behind in the snow to determine who our latest visitors are. Alaska is finally awakening after months of cold and darkness, and we Alaskans are rejuvenated by it and ready to take on summer and all it has to offer.

Please, View On ________ REAL _______ Black. Thank you.

A number of weeks ago when I was in Banff, Lake Minnewanka was showing signs that spring was on it's way

Manuels River

CBS, NL

Showing unmistakable and considerable signs of spring thaw, the Robertson River, flowing north out of the Alaska Range is always by it's glacial nature slow to break up.

Here it is showing first signs of spring, with glacial water upwelling to the surface, making the very dense and airless glacial ice underneath glow with turquoise color, which is typical of glaciers.

Hey, you

I'm just now leaving

Can I come around later on this evening?

Or do you need time?

Yes, of course, that's fine

Hey, you

Good morning

I'm sure you're busy now, why else would you ignore me?

Or do you need space?

You can't help it if your mind has changed

So go ahead and break my heart again

Leave me wondering why the hell I ever let you in

Are you the definition of insanity?

Or am I?

Oh, it must be nice

To love someone who lets you break them twice

You're so blue

Are you still breathing?

Won't you tell me if you find that deeper meaning

Do you think I've gone blind?

I know it's not the truth when you say, "I'm fine"

So go ahead and break my heart again

Leave me wonderin' why the hell I ever let you in

Are you the definition of insanity?

Or am I?

Oh, it must be nice

To love someone who lets you break them twice

Don't pretend that I'm the instigator

You were the one, but you were born to say goodbye

Kissed me half a decade later

That same perfume, those same sad eyes

Go ahead and break my heart again

Leave me wondering why the hell I ever let you in

Are you the definition of insanity?

Or am I?

Or am I?

It must be nice

To love someone who lets you break them twice

Thompson River

Kamloops, B.C.

I hadn't been right down to the shore at this part of the river in quite a while. I didn't realize how much ice was still on it. It's been warm, 10 C or higher, but it's going to take a while for all this ice to go. In the meantime, it's fun to watch little mini-icebergs floating along in the current.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated.

August 2015.

I love seeing the creeks and streams opening to reveal the beautiful glacial colors of the water that have been hidden beneath the snow all winter. It is still hovering around the freezing mark each morning - but the streams are now flowing, and I am ready to go out and hit the trails.

About 75 square miles of ice broke up during an overnight windstorm and piled up in several places along the east shore of Bear Lake. This huge ice jam is on the Idaho side of the border and we have heard there are similar ice jams in Utah. Maybe I will find time to go there and see for myself.

The recent ice breakup deposited roughly 75 square miles of ice in several places along the Bear Lake shoreline in Idaho and Utah. The most spectacular place was here in Idaho where the ice stretches for miles.
