Revisiting the scene of childhood fun.
We are starting the second month of Sally Russick's Focus on Life 2014, with the theme: Cabin Fever. This week's prompt is Get Outside!
Many of us do indeed have Cabin Fever, which, for those who don't live in four season climates, or simply don't have cold weather, is that time when you are soooo fed up with sitting in the house and watching the snow pile up. You feel like busting out.
And our prompt invites us to do just that.
But where I live, it was very cold for most of the week, but not particularly snowy. So the opportunities for idyllic country views were fairly few. And I was looking for a bit of action.

Maybe brother and sister.

| Orange County New York Thomas Bull Park. |

| Friday evening tubing. |

| Down the hill. |
 |

Ready to hook up and ride back up to the top!

Let's look at how others are getting on this winter:
