Walkman~ I hear that. I find it much more enjoyable. Unfortunately we got socked with snow and ice last night. I was hoping for a nice long walk. Yes, the weather turned rather brutal here over the weekend as well. I had big plans for checking on a certain pond where there is an active beaver lodge, but yesterday, it was around zero with very strong northwest winds. With windchill, it was supposed to be around 0 -25F. Decided to stay home but went out for a walk in the fields and woods here at the farm to photograph animal tracks. About 3/4 of an hour of that and I was very ready to come back indoors to warm up!! However, from a weight-loss point of view, I'll bet that walking in this kind of weather would be pretty effective. Sort of a double burn... burning calories from walking and probably almost as many just stoking up the internal furnace to keep from freezing. <g> It's below zero this morning, but at least the wind has dropped. I saw our resident rabbit out at the bird feeder area around 10:30 last night and back again around 5:30 this morning. I keep expecting him to be picked off by an owl, or by the fox that wanders around our garden looking under all of the bushes each night, but so far he's hanging in. It's just that nasty Red Squirrel that gives him trouble. (o: ~croc
