After a productive morning in the studio, it felt great to get out on my bike this afternoon.
Bright blue sky & turquoise water… and WINDY!!! Gorgeous… as it got up into the low 60’s today!!!

Welcome to frosty fractal wonderland this morning… as I was surprised to wake up to a hard frost this morning?! Beautiful though… I’m ready for Spring!!!

We’re supposed to get to “ten degrees above normal” today… and I’m already enjoying the clouded blue sky & the sun breaking though. Hopefully the brief warm-up will help melt that frozen fiasco in my back courtyard area. Pretty as those icicles are… I’m ready for them to go!

A little more icicle magic. Frozen fringe hanging on my back porch… encrusting some dead vines from last summer that “someone“ forgot to cutdown at the end of the season. But look what beauty my… I mean “someone’s” laziness has created!!!

Another wintery morning with more snow on the way. We already have beautiful “icy fringe” hanging on my back porch!!!

Another freezing cold day! Luckily the sun is shining… a perfect day for icicles!!! And for a frozen-over pile of plants that “someone” may have left outside in anticipation of getting them planted in the ground before the cold weather hit. Guess “someone” waited too long??? Looks cool though… also looks frozen solid!!!

Another chilly morning… a little more snow & a lot more icicles!!!

Was it just me who was completely surprised by the winter wonderland this morning?! I had no idea we were going to get snow… which was beautiful. The icy roads with absolutely no salt trucks?… not so much.

And yes, there’s a light layer of snow on top of my “Tired Of Shlepping Sale” pottery which I left out on the back porch!!! There might be some extra frozen discounts out there when I do my second Holiday Home Show in two weeks!!!

It’s a chilly day down at Navy Pier… with more snow on the way!!!
