a Paisley Sunflower

Today Mr. P and I took a trip down the canyon.  I snapped
some photos on the fly,as there was no place to pull over.
Well,okay there were places,but they were snowy and icy.

We had a foot of fresh snow the other day.

In some places the Arkansas River is not all the way frozen
and covered with ice and snow yet.

In some places it is.

Where the river is not frozen over there are patches of ice
along with the current.

This mini island in the river stays like this most of the winter,
as it hardly gets any sun.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
