Ice and Snow

1st 2:  half inch of ice on CR-V windows
Literally freezing out there this morning when Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I started off on the daily trek.

Organ Mountains were beautiful under heavy snow cover.  Some desert flora was still blanketed in snow and ice.

Willow and Frio misbehaved badly by dashing north to the Tellbrook Arroyo and not coming when called.  Their penalty was staying on lead for the rest of the outing.

We went for a short drive afterwards listening to Matt and Myron on their morning show.
