Pink Sky

Had grand plans for today......I was going to leap out of bed and go to the gym. LOL. Well, that didn't happen. Instead I went to the store, got my latte and a blueberry scone. Took care of some everyday things around my house. Talked on the phone.
And took Chhaya for a long walk. Really pretty out and cold. It's not that bad if the wind doesn't blow and you dress warm.
Alaska is a huge state and the temperatures vary a lot depending on where you live. This afternoon it was about 7 °F here whereas in Fairbanks it was -15 °F. Fairbanks is Alaska's second largest city, the largest is Anchorage and I am about 500 miles away (driving) from Fairbanks and 140 miles from Anchorage. It would definitely be way too cold for me to live in Fairbanks, it gets to be really cold there in the winter. I don't know how people do it there. Or how people lived in cold climates back in the day when they didn't have the comforts we enjoy and take for granted today, I would had been sooooo miserable!
Sweden gets cold too but the winters in Stockholm where I grew up and lived most of the time are not as long as the winters here. Northern Sweden gets to be cold, Stockholm is in the middle of the country. So not Fairbanks cold.
Anyways, enough of weather talk. I am going to lay around and do nothing for a while, before I get ready for tonight.
Here are some pics from this afternoon, the pink sky was really pretty.......
