It's Still Cold

It's still cold.

The kids have gotten used to it.

On a recent hike, Silas and Rosemary climbed high up the hill in Inwood Hill Park.  I took this picture when they turned to look down at the park, and, beyond it, our neighborhood. 

Here's Silas playing on snow-covered rocks near the frozen marsh. 

He is not on an ice floe.  When the tide goes out, it leaves behind -- balancing on the rocks at water's edge -- beautiful sheets of ice.

Silas clambers down to smash them.

At the end of each day, mittens and hats cook atop the radiator.
