winter prairie roads & dirty snow...

happy weekend!

I had DH take be for a drive this morning...

I haven't been out of the house all week...

and it finally made it to 30 this morning...

so off we went...

before the rain started...

and things get real interesting on the back roads...

supposed to change to freezing rain...

then sleet...

and then snow...

took Charlie with us...
he is still nervous about car rides...
but getting better all the time...
see...
in the mirror...
got his hoodie on...

when we hit the back roads...
I roll the window down...
crank up the heat and cover my legs with a throw and off we go...
Charlie is liking the air blowing in his face...
might make a dog out of him yet...
(he thinks he's a cat)

sometimes we just creep along the fields...
and I holler "whoa" if I see a shot...
DH is so good at it now...
and he likes the pics we get...
we make a good team...

hope you week ahead is a good one...
should be much warmer by next weekend...
we might even get out of town...
;0)
and be sure to come back this week...
there are a lot more photos of the day!

Tete, I love that you and your hubby go for rides. I laughed when I saw Charlie in the mirror. We are having ice right now. I pray we do not get more. I hate ice worse than snow. It's too dangerous. Hope you are feeling well . Blessings, xoxo,Susie

LOL. I do that "stop!" thing too. But my husband has to do it, in city traffic.

Well, on side streets. But still, there are likely to be more cars on the streets, than on country roads.

Glad you got out. Sounds as if it's going to be "interesting" weather there, for a bit.

Here, mostly just cold.

But! It's winter! ,-)
