After a couple of days of unseasonably warm weather, winter is back in northern Illinois. We've had almost no snow this winter, but it's turned cold again. Mother Nature doesn't want us Midwesterners to get soft, after all. I thought I'd share a few wintry shots I made today.
I stopped by a forest preserve and was rewarded with the sight of ice floating down the river.
The barren fields certainly look cold and bleak, don't they?
I actually love to drive in the country when everything is frozen and bare. There is nothing quite like rocketing down small country roads crusted with snow and being able to see forever across the wide open spaces.
