At Home With Jesus!

A cold hike

As I mentioned...it snowed here this week. 
The temps have been in the 30's-40's, and very windy all week.

We had really hoped that we would be able to see some geese at Horicon Marsh before they made their long journey south...but I think they must have felt winter coming because there were hardly any there.

We saw a few beaver and muskrat lodges
A heron
And a wide open, cold, empty marsh.....
The older two didn't have their winter jackets (I hadn't dug them out of storage yet because we typically don't need them until November)... but they wanted to hike, so the kids wrapped the extra blankets that we keep in the car around them, and we set off on the trail through the marsh.   (It was 36 degrees!)

Julie decided maybe that wasn't such a good idea.

Joseph made the best of it

After a couple more 'photo ops' we called it quits and went back to the car...where we blasted the heater all the way home.
