water baby

it's been warm enough the last several days to melt the ice on the lake... so the geese and ducks have been having a time of it... floating, taking nose dives, feet first landings, water baths... i even saw a couple of duck water fights...  such fun.

but i hear it won't last... ahhh - such is the case with weather forecasters, right?  they're not going to let you bask in the luxury of springtime temptations too long...  it is, after all, still february in the mountains and that means snow can come at its leisure. 

until then, i'm enjoying this short spurt of sweater weather and freedom for my tootsies.

happy day.....
