Winter in the Woods

In honor of Alex's last weekend without school, we decided to head up north this past weekend for a little time out of the city. We didn't really have a plan, but figured we would make use of the car and have ourselves an adventure.

We ended up in the adorable little town of Cold Spring, about 1.5-2 hours north of NYC, where we had previously come to go hiking. I was thinking there would be lots of snow and was hoping we could enjoy perhaps some cross country skiing or snow shoeing or something of that sort. However, to our surprise, there was very little of the white stuff to be seen anywhere.

We decided instead to spend a late afternoon up in the hillside taking a similar hike to what we had done earlier in the fall. It was only icy in a few spots, but there was a good deal of ice on the creek which made for some fun photography.
