A Frosty Walk...

Temperatures have been below freezing and even into the teens for the last several days.  The wood fire is working overtime. Decided that I needed a good frosty walk today.  So the dogs and I took off up the hill.

Up the hill....

Stopped to look at a bunch of towhees eating apples, 
just too flighty to capture them on camera.

Up the hill, past Bee Junction...

Heading toward the log landing...

Libby dog loving the frost

A brown creeper, great camouflage...

Around the side of the hill and then back up towards the top...

On the top of Muffin Mountain.  Carlton and then Mt. Hood very faintly in the background. 

About three miles up and back. Libby and Jack still have lots of energy.

And even though it's not a great picture, I couldn't resist including this picture of the bull elk
that was hanging out by the walnut trees at dusk.

A nice day. A nice walk.
