Spring Vacation 2007

Well this is where I departed from in Texas and below is where I landed in Minnesota. Both are beautiful aren't they? The temps in the top picture were in the 80's and the temps in the lower were in the 60's. I actually do prefer cooler temps. I love spring with the crisp, clear air and the impossibly blue skies. The sense of rebirth. Both of these scenes are calming. I could have sat and watched that ice float around that lighthouse for hours at a time. Maybe that one fascinated me more since it's so foreign to me. We don't have snow and very rarely ice here. We don't even have very many days of freezing weather a year normally. Here it's kids, chaos and responsibility...there it was peace, relaxation and no pressure. Altogether a very nice vacation....just WAY too short.
