I am, I am. We had -11 this morning, and I'm sure down in the valley it was a few degrees colder than that. Since I still have photos from our Texas trip and it was warmer down there than up here, I'd thought that I'd warm myself up.
We filled the coffee cups up and headed out the door and took a road trip. We headed back to the free ferry, but this time we took our van. I just love my pink coffee mug.
I did mange to get Jim to crack a small smile as I was taking his picture.
I don't always get in the photos I take so I decided to smile for one.
They get pretty serious about line cutting. It was a good thing that there was no-one else in line as we were heading to the ferry.
Again the birds flew around the back of the boat as we were leaving the dock.
One of the first things I saw when we got off the ferry was a light house. On my bucket list of things to do is tour light houses up and down the East and the West coasts.
We stopped a couple of times but I'll post about those separately. I don't want to overload you with too many photos.
Well, I'm a lot warmer now, I hope you are too :)




it warmed me tonight, and i'm still in texas. :)

Yes. It worked like a charm! Something about seeing palm trees, water, and folks in their shirtsleeves...

Thanks for visiting Thistle Cove Farm; I followed you home. Those photos of "warm" are appreciated. It's 6 above and supposed to get even colder, with wind chill, this morning. I still have to go to the barn and am finishing my second cup of coffee first. I need to go to town but hate to go two days in a row...not so much being lazy as trying to combine trips. No way to combine trips on Sunday, I try not to shop on Sunday but don't always succeed.

Glad you had fun in Galveston. When I was there this past summer we parked the car in the lot and walked on the ferry. It was great for taking photos from the upper deck. Stay warm, for goodness sake!

Nice pic of you, Judy...enjoyed the rest of the photos. That was a hefty fine for cutting in the line.

That is cold. Sounds like the kind of winters my daughter had when she was at the University of Iowa for law school. I love the shot of you. Also good of your husband and beautiful shots from your trip.

It was a little warmer here and it melted the last of our snow with the exception of the mountains.

Beautiful. Isn't it interesting how different the weather can be from one place to the next.
