Defeated

The weather finally defeated me today as I didn't make it into work, abandoned vehicles on the motorways and weather so cold that the rock salt on the roads wasn't working made it seem prudent to finally heed the advice on the TV and not travel. So I spent a good three hours trying to rid our drive of 6 inches of compacted ice so I can get the cars out tomorrow.

Did take a break later on though for a walk across the Golf course to get this shot, this time without the mist. It was so cold it almost hurt to breathe...weather forecast today was for a low of -16 to a high of -6 centrigrade. Now back in the warm with the telly and a warming drink.
