I took my walk late this morning, shortly after the sun rose. I looked up and saw great beauty in the sky.
;)
Further along, a raven passed over me.

As I walked, I heard the loud whine of a snow machine, being throttled nearly to the red line - maybe even over. Worried that I might be in its path, I turned and saw that it was still about a block-and-a-half away, coming extremely fast, but had gone onto Seldon Street.
I hurriedly pulled out my new pocket camera and turned it on, barely in time to get this one frame before it shot past and disappeared.
I mean, this snow machine was going fast. Sixty, at the very least. I think maybe faster than that.
;)
A bit after noon, I was in my car when "North! To Alaska!" came on the radio, sung by Johnny Horton. I am listening to it at this very moment, as I wait at the stop sign for this truck to pass.
I can't sing worth a damn - but damn! I am singing, anyway.
"North! To Alaska!"
Yeah, baby! That's right.
And God, I love it!
Don't get offended - I'm not taking the Lord's name in vain. I'm thanking Him. Or Her. Whatever you wish to believe.
I don't know.
I'm just damned thankful, that's all.
Please note: Today begins my review by month of 2009. January will go up 20 minutes after this post.
