perfectly stated

A few people have already seen this picture but I had to put it on here...

Dylan took this picture last week with his cell phone while driving for work. He titled it, I found the middle of nowhere. I think it is absolutely perfect!

He has driven past this sign and all around this area for 6 years and never realized how removed from everything it truly is. And I completely understand. I try to visualize the remoteness of this picture from an outsiders perspective and it just makes me shake my head with disbelief and confusion...

If there were any questions as to why we are so excited for Florida this picture should answer all of those questions! :-)

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

44 with 58

44 in January! 44 degrees in January almost makes you forget about all those 30 below days - well almost. Too bad the winds picked up and gusted to 58 mph making it difficult to fully enjoy the warm temps.

Yesterday morning we went for a drive in the country (we sound like we are 80 years old!) I had hoped to get some good pics of the snow and trees, but I didn't find what I was looking for. We still had fun though.

At one point we pulled over - well actually we just stopped in the middle of the road because with no traffic in the middle of nowhere there is no need to pull over - so that I could take some pictures of a snowy path and trees. As I walked down the snowy path past a large 'No Trespassing' sign a car drives by, slows and then puts it in reverse. The car ends up being the land owner! Thankfully my husband can charm anyone and the land owner left us alone.

On the way back home Dylan drove us through a cool little town. I really liked the hills and the river that the little town was built around. We live near several large rivers that truly are quite amazing.
