Changes of scenery

This past week has been spent trying to get the remainder of the gorp out of my system. Whatever this "bug" is it sure takes its sweet time leaving.  Going to the gym is just out of the question, people would be running for cover or would ask me to leave or better yet bring in the Department of Health to take me to the sanatorium.  So I've been doing a lot of walking, since I can't get enough air to even try to run....last weekend was spent walking along our beach, it was a gorgeous day!




Beautiful fall splendour at every turn





But I've heard,

Red sky at night, sailor's delight,

Red sky in the morning, sailor's take warning....








yes, we got our first snow fall November 5, 2009





Hopefully I'll be able to get back to the gym soon.

Life's fun if you don't weaken,

Lily

Did the snow stick? We got our first snowfall a couple weeks ago, but it didn't really stick.

I love sunrises in the morning during the winter. They are so full of color!

take it easy. The relapse rate on this flu is what takes you down worse than the first time. So easy does it Tiger!

Do you know WHY the sailors said that? Cause the hurricanes picked up strength in the morning as the waters warmed. At night, they cooled down and lost strength.

Laurel, you finally gave me the English equivalent of a German saying that I always use (very badly translated of course). Thanks so much!

(Morgenrot, schlecht Wetter droht!)

Hope you are better soon. Not getting enough air to run does not sound fun!
