Beauty at -9F

Yep, when I stopped to take this shot this morning, the car thermometer read -9F. That's pretty freaking cold. One nice upside to this "Polar Vortex" (I prefer the term Arctic Sphincter) is that the sunrises and clear skies have been pretty spectacular. And, cold as it is, you can't help but appreciate the beauty in it all. Spring seems like a lifetime away. When the temps crawl into the 20's this weekend it will feel like a heatwave. ;)
