About Beaverton's Wixom Lake

7:42 AM February 22, 2012

Two days ago, the weather was simply amazing. The sunrise was beautiful and birds were chirping. It was warm? Well, if you've been in the cold as long as us, yes, it really was warm!

My daughter came into my room, opened the window and exclaimed what a beautiful day it was! I shared in her enthusiasm and agreed! Although I already knew it was a beautiful day. I had been up for a couple hours. And spending some of it with her and my daughter-in-law and grandbabies made it even more beautiful....

Today, spring is no longer in the air, and we are seeing that it really is still winter!

Hoping to make snowmen later today or tomorrow.

Have a wonderful day and a wonderful weekend!

It really is winter here in Beaverton MI.

Even though I think we have had less snow than normal and higher than usual temperatures.

Some days are white and grey all day, like Monday of this week was.

Other days are sunny and I saw a couple of flocks of geese fly over the office today.

They were heading North East. They must have decided to stay here for the winter!

Any way, whether it's warm or cold for you

Happy Ground Hogs Day!

Six more weeks of Winter

Six weeks til Spring!
