I mean…it certainly looked like Alaska.

Ice v. Lake Erie

It wasn’t too too cold today (aka 30 degrees aka mild winter weather for a midwesterner), so I went out to Edgewater to take some photos of the lake after work.

The waves at Edgewater

I was supposed to go home after an appointment, but I wound up going to Edgewater Beach instead. It’s quiet there now. All of the boats are covered up for the season and the beach house is largely abandoned.

Squirrels and squirrely weather

I hate winter. Have I mentioned that before? Because I do.

Christmas Eve with the coyotes

It was a wet, mild Christmas Eve and it’ll be a wet, mild Christmas Day.

WinterLand CLE

I’m tired of cold weather. But I braved it to go downtown today for WinterLand CLE.
