Well that pretty much sums it up!! Hello - I am posting from Bayfield today, and the forecast is COLD. I have been most busy since the last time I was here ~ my sister CINDY has come for a visit.
She came into Minneapolis on Sunday morning and what fun I am having. We had talked about our forthcoming trip earlier, and thought it would be fun to go away and just hide out. And that is how we came to be in Bayfield. That is all fine and dandy EXCEPT Mother Nature decided it was time for Mr. Winter to make a visit at the same time!!!! BRRRRR......
I am just going to update our activities to date. Sunday we went to a Brunch after we left the airport.
Later in the day we met up with dear daughter and family at Church and had a little visit.
Monday I was able to do something I have always wanted to do.....we took our wireless connections ( for lack of a better term ) to Starbucks and sat enjoying our lattes and chatted intermittently while reading our individual readers :-) Ahhh....so relaxing and fun. On our way home we received a phone call to join Amy & Angie at the Y for a Zumba and Pilates class in the eve. Of course, we were happy to accomodate that idea, and then afterwards went to Tanners for a beverage.....or two!! So fun!
It was determined that C & I would head North to Bayfield on Tues....AND we had looked at the weather forecast prior to this. All that was mentioned was that a 'snow shower' could occur on each day of the week. Well, no biggie, off we went after stopping for a latte from Caribou YUMMO.
After arriving safely, and unpacking, the next venture was to refill and turn on the WATER HEATER. After MUCH trepidation on my part....SUCCESS. Then we heard the weather forecast for the next few days in this area. Wind, Snow, Cold Snap. Cold Snap???? YES!! No wonder the warning sign for low tire pressure came onto the dashboard of the car. YES we can see wind chills of
-25 or such in the next few days. POOR CINDY :-0 Also I should mention here, before retiring last night, Cindy and I both stretched and found some sore musclage that we probably acquired from all that wonderful exercising we participated in on Monday night......
We ventured out around noon today for the grocery in Washburn and some lunch. The weather at that time was not too bad at all. We stopped for some Soup & Bread at Coco's (Potato Leek Soup ~ TASTY) and when we left the wind had picked up and you could feel a definite drop in the temp.
We then headed back into Bayfield to the coffee shop Big Water for a latte--HoneyBee Latte--which was another yummy treat.
Now we are relaxing after a wonderful dinner prepared by Cindy - Apple Pork Chop bake and salad.
I can hear the wind rearing it's ugly head as I bring this all to an end -- will do a weather check and let all know how it is........umm that would be -20 or -30.
Two things came to mind this morning: 1) This weather is not for the faint of heart
2) I FORGOT ..... I have been trying to
remember ALL day!
On that note.......ta ta!
