Big frost feathers on the window.

Blue sky.  Hooray.

Here comes the sun.......

One thing about spending time home, sick (but not too sick), is that a lot of reading can happen.

I am quite liking these Sharon Lee "Carousel" books.  I've read two now.....   Positivity is by one of the contributors to The Science of Happiness.  I'm really enjoying learning more about the science of positive emotions..... 

Walking.

Back home, looking out the back window.  So far, all the pics in this post were taken with a camera.  It was pretty dark when I took this one, so I went for the phone.  It does a much closer approximation, in low light, to what my eyes see than does the camera.

Here's a look at the south, taken with the camera.

I've lightened this up -- this is more like what my eyes saw.

Cropped.

Here's what the camera saw.  I did zoom it, which renders a less-sharp image (no optical zoom on a phone).

Not really all that thrilled with either of these images.
