Indigo Sky

Yesterday, I shared that the weather was accommodating my melancholy mood, as it was our last day on the river.  When we arrived at the cabin today, it seemed nature was accommodating my mood once again (though this time I was joy-filled)...the sky was an incredibly deep indigo, the wind blustery, the temperature cold (38 degrees), and there were no signs of spring anywhere.  Feels like winter and I like it!  Oh, and the cabin was a nice 37 degrees inside, as we had not turned on any of the electric heaters...you know us, icky poo to electric heat...so we were stoking the wood stove as fast as we could to regulate the temperature inside...it only took 2 hours to get to 52...not bad if you ask me, with the wind blowing...and another 2 hours to get the entire cabin into the 60's. 

I know you are wondering "Lise, what the heck, don't you want spring to arrive?"...truth be told, I'd like another icy snow that locks me into the cabin for a few days...I know this is not what anyone else wants to have happen, but I would be completely content if it did.  I missed the biggest snowstorm of the season while I was on the river...

With all that said, I have to admit, there is something extremely special about being able to live in two such different places...I find myself appreciating each of them, both upon leaving and then upon returning.  I don't mean to sound like I am gloating or anything, but after this recent trip and our return to the cabin, I have a deep appreciation for the opportunity to experience them both on a regular basis. 

Today, ABCWednesday is highlighting the letter 'I', and though Indigo is pertinent and included, this is really about me, meaning Lise, therefore, I is perfect!  And I am grateful. 

Thanks for reading my blog, you are the best f/f/r/s/f's, see you tomorrow,
Lise
