Bear and I made a quick trip to Kila this morning to collect Bob’s insulin from Calm Veterinary. Winter Storm Warning and Watch is in effect and they are promising snow. There were squalls here and there and in Kila, next to Smith Lake, beautiful hoar frost.

Even the dry weeds have beauty when decorated with the heavy frost.

We walked on the “Rails to Trails” walk along the lake and Smith Valley.

The palette of the landscape was soft and pale, especially compared to Kila in Summer.
