Our normal daytime temperatures this time of year are usually in the 40's, but today we won't get out of the 20's.After cleaning up the kitchen last night, I stepped outside for a breath of air like I usually do. Aha, I thought! So this is what the Yukon smells like. The "polar express" is flowing straight into the Puget Sound area bringing dry, frigid and unbelievably clean air down from the Arctic.
I stopped at Alki Beach this morning, deserted except for some intrepid dog walkers, and took a few pictures. The air was crystal clear, and the snowy mountains a beautiful sight across the water.
Later I stopped at the barn to check on Sizzle (fine) and gave her a favorite seasonal treat (candy cane.) Looks like this cold snap will last all week, with a slight chance of snow by Saturday.
