Another Chinook Sunrise

I woke up to the sound of the chinook this morning. At least they weren’t strong enough to dismantle the house, or even distress the Collie.
Danny (but mostly Hap)

This detail is from Danny, a small paint-arabian cross who is my trainer’s school horse.
Today, the weather was fabulous. It was so beautiful that I threw the bareback pad on Hap and see if he was still absolutely the best bareback pony in Colorado.

Ice Bow

Yesterday morning, it was cold enough for us to see ice bows not long after sunrise. I was amazed by how close they appeared.
Minus Eleven
The outside thermometer is registering -11F this morning, which may be the coldest night here since we moved to Colorado. Paradoxically, the bedroom was almost too warm for sleep, since it is right next to the furnace, which was on all night, as far as I could tell.

Powers and Old Ranch
This morning, the Gazette reported
The intersection of Powers and Old Ranch Road now tops the city’s list of the 25 most dangerous intersections while many hot spots from the past year saw fewer crumpled cars and injuries.
This is an intersection I drive past several times a week, and I thought it looked extremely dangerous from before it opened. Powers looks like a limited access highway at that point, and there is very little warning that there is at grade crossing with a signal at the top of the hill. In addition, the drivers on Old Ranch do not have good visibilty to see the traffic that might be approaching on Powers. I wonder if this report will lead the traffic engineers to consider some risk mitigation like flashing lights on Powers to warn of the intersection.
Solar Wigwam

I took this photo in our neighborhood when I was walking the dogs on Monday. It seems to be a passive solar house: I don’t know if it is active solar as well.
