Fog on the Little Miami

Going from bitter cold to unseasonably warm, water flowing over the ice is creating some nice fog in the rivers and streams around. Tomorrow the temperatures are suppose to again take a dive. Maybe I'll get a few more chances to get some neat photos of the small little streams up in Indian Hill

Happy New Year

And it is starting out as a cold one. Took a little walk today in the cold to get some photos of the ice and the river. As a bonus, saw a bald eagle soaring. Aiming to do a minimum of one blog entry a week for the whole year. I should have the time...
