Stewart Count Park - White Pines

It's another unseasonably warm day here in Mount Horeb. The tops of the ridge where we live is thick with fog. I had exactly 20 minutes of time before the kid was released from school early. I ran down to the park, threw on my cleats and wander up a trail I'd not seen before. Casting about for a second I realized I was standing in exactly the right place for a photo. I love this little thicket of white pines.

Stewart County Park

It's a wet, sudden thaw here in Mount Horeb after a day of icy rain. On my way to the store I swung by the lake to have a quick look around. The trails are very icy, and there are streams of water flowing all over the place. I hear it may stay warm for a few weeks. These icy conditions should disappear. Hopefully soon.
