. ...well..winter is definitely locked in here...with the wind chill was 10 below zero the other night. I been driving down to Lake Margarethe lately, which is 4 miles down the road, and wandering around. Lot of folks go there and set up their ice shantys and ice fish...the hard core ones show up with a bucket and a saw and saw a hole in the ice and sit on the bucket. Drove down last week and wandered around for a while....those are Ice shantys out on the ice..
. .....did this close up with a fixed 80 mm lens on my Fuji.......takes a certain kind to sit out on a frozen lake in the freezing cold fishing while
...freezing yer nads off..
...looking down and across the lake..
...then I wandered around the shore for a bit, looking for any wild life..
. ...my Blazer
...Northern Michigan has miles and miles of back dirt roads....most well maintained and plowed....I love driving out in the woods alone and just exploring..
.....well...wont be in the wind any time soon....so exploring Mother Nature is a great ...temporary distraction..
. .......C mon Spring !!! ..
