In the summer, it is not often that I see the sunrise. When I have to work the full time job, I am usually up around 0530 or 0600. In the summer, the sun has already begun its ascent across the sky by then, so I miss greeting the dawn. But late fall and early […]

Snowy, Windy Cold
Today was one of those days that remind us that winter is on the horizon. It was a snowy, windy fall day where the wind chill made it feel even colder. We Iowans have been spoiled with warmer than normal weather for November. This past weekend in particular was a beautiful weekend with glorious sunshine […]
