In the fall I took about 200 picutures of the trail where I run.  I took the camera with me today in the morning, just around 9:30 a.m.  The moisture on the branches had again formed crystals.  It was a winter wonderland.  Blue sky, white glittering tree branches, fields of soft snow. There must have been 10 other people out there with cameras.  The scenery along the river was breathtaking.  I wish I could post the pictures here.  I took about 266 more of the trail in winter, all covered with snowy crystals.  But man it was cold to stop and shoot pictures every few meters.  My fingers froze.  But what a gorgeous morning.  I've never seen anything like how every branch of every tree grew snow.  My pictures have given me quite a bit of pleasure since yesterday.  I'm so glad I have them.  Just 2 more seasons to go.  I plan on taking the same pictures from the same spots in every season.  I have one like that, that I've taken of Mt. Timanogos.  But this will be like taking a walk on the trail in every season of the year....like a slideshow.  They can bring it to me when I'm in the hospital having hip replacement surgery in 10 years.
