Barn In The Thaw

One of my favorite barns is shrouded in mist caused by the January thaw. The roads are simply awful so that driving home this afternoon was an adventure. I wallowed in muddy ruts up to my hubcaps. Cows were lose in the road at two farms — they frolicked in the warm wind while farmers tried to herd them back to their pastures. Branches were blowing off trees and caused me to worry that they would damage the car. The wind is from the northwest again. Black ice will be the problem tomorrow, but winter is coming back.

January Thaw

The high temperature today was over 50°F (10°C) but I managed to still keep some snow on the roof. Last week the temperatures hovered around zero (-18°C) all day long. This is the back of the house. Garage roof on left. Kitchen window above the kerosene tank. Big empty rooms are straight ahead behind that wall between the garage and the kitchen.

I messed around with color with a photo of a red sunset. You can see the sunset on Friday. I enjoy the silhouettes of the trees here.
