A beautiful sunrise.....

 

Our Location: 

North of MM 4, Ogilby Road, Winterhaven, California

 

I hope you enjoy this mornings sunrise. The sky started to light over the Cargos and soon the reddish tinge was evident and it just kept growing, pinks, red, and finally yellows. With the cloud cover it was a quite a show.

 

 Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit. 

 

Until next time..

 

Take care, be safe,

Winter, spring, winter.....

Just a quick little photo show. Winter doesn't want to let go here, this morning was -13C/ 9 F but we've been going up and down from just above freezing to  just below until the last couple of days which have been consistently COLD. Add to that the wonderful north wind and well, you get the idea. 

 

Sunrise March 20.

March 25, a new snow fall.

Not massive but enough, wet and heavy.

March 26, early morning, freezing rain.

Later in the day March 26, now just muddy roads.

As you can see from the photos, in one week we had some interesting weather, today the road in the last photo is frozen and no mud in sight. Cold but no wind makes a difference here, although living on a big rock in the middle of Lake Huron insures that at some point there will be wind during any 24 hour period. Hopefully it's from the south and remains so for the next number of weeks. The snow banks are melting quickly at times but new ones are showing up too.  Freezing rain in the forecast for tomorrow as well.  Ah spring, it is the season.

 

The sunrise photos I changed the colour tint to match closer to the actual colour in the sky that the camera just can't seem to pick up. All photos were taken with my phone of course. 

 

Thanks for dropping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit. 

 

Until next time, 

take care, be safe, stay healthy

A very pretty sunrise.....

Our Location: BLM, Ogilby Road, Winterhaven, CA

A nice morning, I slept better and no Riley didn’t hit me with a hammer. I just somehow managed to sleep better. I was out the door around 6:30 AM finally warm enough for  me to be out there without worry of aches later when I warm up. 

 

A bit of colour in the sky.

 

A very amazing sunrise and I managed to snap a few pictures. In fact all of today’s pictures are sunrise this morning. I weeded them down to my favourite few so as not to overload anyone.
 

 

I walked pretty much to the Ogilby Road and back while taking sunrise pictures this morning and so I felt that was enough of a walk for me today. Riley opted for a day off of walking. Tomorrow I think I’ll head out again but limit myself to an hour out before heading back home. That may work better for me and I’ll just have to be wiser when I  pick my destination instead of wandering where ever my feet take me.

 

It was a lazy day here, we didn’t do a whole lot but Riley managed to vacuum the Igloo and she even mopped the floors. She is such a big help and I appreciated all her efforts. I, on the other hand spent my time cleaning the Dogsled, windows, desert sand, dust, etc. You know how a vehicle loves to collect this desert dust. A black interior is not good at hiding the dust either. 

 

 

I puttered around outside and did a few other house keeping chores before finally sitting down to read my book for a while. An off again, on again coolish breeze had me changing from long pants to short, to long, to short until I finally just gave up and stayed inside in short pants. Riley and I played a couple of games of Battleship this afternoon just to pass the time. A little bit more work to make lunch today as we enjoyed scalloped potatoes, salsa chicken, corn and of course Jello. We both had a pre lunch salad as well. 

 

 

A call from dad to see how things were going. They had a huge snow fall Monday into Tuesday which was followed by freezing rain, followed by rain. Still lots of snow though and they are heading into a deep freeze with temps being around the -4F/-20C mark. Better them than us.
 

 

Two birthdays to make note of today. Well actually just one and a remembrance of another. A birthday wish to my oldest niece Amber, she is my sister’s daughter. Another year behind her and I’m sure she’s wondering where it’s gone. Amber is the mother of 3 children, 1 girl and 2 boys and works part time as a medical secretary. Happy Birthday Amber.

Looking between Ocotillo Spines.

 

The remembrance is of my late Uncle Harry. Mother’s youngest brother. Harry was a very warm hearted man with a few issues but always willing to lend a helping hand and with a heart as big as the great outdoors. He is sadly missed. 

 

 

So there you have it, our day here in the BLM land off of Ogilby Road. A quiet, lazy day without much to do. We like those days for certain. I hope you had a fantastic day where ever you may be, and whatever you may have been doing. Thanks for stopping by. 

The sun has risen to meet a new day.

 

Until next time… take care, be safe,
