There were two Sundogs but I only got a photo of one. Photo taken out of the windshield when I was safely pulled over.
I stopped and took this photo on my way back from PT and a trip to the corner of happy and healthy to pick up a prescription for Far Guy. I have new exercises to do for my back and my bad leg. I have known the Physical Therapist for a number of years.
Cold here...but at least its windy.
I plan to work on the puzzle while the rest of the household watches the Hockey game on Friday night.
Minnesota weather; High was -3F or -19C Low was -20F or -29C eh. Next week we will be 64 degrees warmer than we were if the weather predictions are correct. Crazy extremes.
Supper was freezer meals...Far Guy had chili, I had soup and Jen had an egg sandwich. Andy was working late.

ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful sundog. I have seen a few over my long life but never got a picture like that.
Cold is cold, but at least there is no humidity, smoke, or skeeters. Those are the positives I can make out of winter.
ReplyDeleteI haven't looked at the temps yet, but it is supposed to be windy on the ridges which means deadly cold wind chills.
Cool photos!
ReplyDeleteIt's warm then cold here...wish it would just get on with it! lol

ReplyDeleteYou northern people are a strange breed.
:) :)
DeleteThat comment had me wondering as well!
DeleteIt's a deep freeze here and though briefly sunny yesterday I haven't been out long enough to see a sundog...if it appeared. Like you, our temperatures are expected to climb. I'll take it - this cold is hard to take. Hard on vehicles, animals, and people!
ReplyDeleteSun dogs bring some warm air please. I like going to therapy as I like exercise. I met a lady there that had back surgery and afterwards could not feel either leg. She was getting everything back. Made my problems seem small.
ReplyDeleteSundogs are so fascinating. But I prefer to view them from the warm comfort of "indoors". Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteGood photo! A good PT is priceless.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a sun dog? New phrase to this southern girl! Can’t imagine the kind of snow/ temps you regularly have. Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteA sundog (or parhelion) is a bright, rainbow-like spot appearing to the left or right of the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through hexagonal ice crystals in high-altitude clouds
DeleteLove the sundog! Even colder weather coming!
ReplyDeleteThe chill is biting here too. No sun dogs that Ive seen, but some nice ice pillars.
ReplyDeleteOK, I’ll bite. What are sundogs? Never heard the term. Enjoy your puzzle and a peaceful weekend.

DeleteOh! Sun dogs!! Hardly ever see them!
ReplyDeleteI hope the new exercises work well for you. :)
Very cool shot and something I've never witnessed. Enjoy the weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat sky sign for dog lover you!
ReplyDeleteWe have a bit of sunshine this afternoon, which won't last long before we are back to rain, possibly right up to Christmas. :-(
Although I have seen a few sun dogs in my life I never really knew what caused them. Thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteO what a nice one!
ReplyDeleteLD...Your cold air is blowing right down to us for sure. It is so painfully cold. I can visualize the other half of the picture in my head. The therapists got my wife walking again and I am impressed with their processes used.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of the sun dog. I don't know that I have ever seen one, except in pictures. Stay in and stay warm you guys. All the best to you and yours. Prayers for you and FG.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any sun dogs for a long time. Hope the new PT exercises are helpful. I find it so interesting how exercises are adjusted.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I've ever successfully photographed a sun dog. Nice shot. Brrrr - stay warm!
