#northdakotawinter

This winter has been so mild and warm - we had to go on another walk by the river! I only made it down one loop due to my ongoing health issues. But none of that matters because, due to my husband thinking I grabbed Murphy’s leash and me thinking he grabbed it, Murphy went on his first off leash walk and consequently had the best day of his life. This guy was marking everything, running everywhere, grinning from ear to ear and practically glowing! It was pure joy radiating from him and I loved every minute! 🌾 #outhereontheprairie #northdakota #northdakotawinter #missouririver #corgisofinstagram #walkthedog #offleash (at North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ_qlUEAr6c/?igshid=flm8h4ox2vqt

Here’s what I love about foggy frosty winter days: the ability to walk out on the prairie and just get lost. It’s so quiet. Everything is white. The wind is still. Every single thing seems to be sleeping. It’s just a completely different world out there. Yesterday, after some errands, instead of going right home I turned off on a few country roads and just drove. It was so densely foggy that I drove right through a wind farm and didn’t realize it until I barely saw the outline of a windmill base through the fog. It was just a transformative experience and I loved every frost covered second. I hope we get more days like this soon. 🌫❄️ #outhereontheprairie #fog #frost #hoarfrost #prairie #prairiewinter #northdakota #northdakotawinter (at Douglas, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_6Ic-HNBL/?igshid=768ho44bo6ml

The only times I can say I love winter are a) northern lights (super rare) b) frost! I’m always super thankful when frost comes along and makes winter nicer ❄️ #outhereontheprairie #frost #winter #northdakota #northdakotawinter #hoarfrost #winterwonderland #winterbeauty (at Garrison, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKzDC8GgB8W/?igshid=8yhuauor58ba

I wish I had my big camera with me, but my phone had to do. Frost makes almost everything photogenic! ❄️ #outhereontheprairie #frost #winter #northdakota #northdakotawinter #hoarfrost #winterwonderland #winterbeauty (at Garrison, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKzB1nDggJ2/?igshid=1x6kt0mke8vqz

Taken before work yesterday, I had to try and capture a bit of the winter wonderland. ❄️ #outhereontheprairie #frost #winter #northdakota #northdakotawinter #hoarfrost #winterwonderland #winterbeauty (at Garrison, North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKzBPTqATBH/?igshid=1lcylqk9g6p25

Not a breath of wind. Totally quiet. Fog. Thick frost. What a great way to begin 2021! 🌬 #outhereontheprairie #winter #northdakota #northdakotawinter #frost #2021 #january1 (at North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJgr05ugez3/?igshid=15fpmu3mz0nyz

40 degrees in mid December. A beautiful riverside walk in the sunshine. Happy dogs. I haven’t had to use the flannel sheets yet. What a wonderful winter it is! 🌾❄️ #outhereontheprairie #missouririver #northdakota #northdakotawinter (at North Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJCW18DgD5H/?igshid=1iuo566ndpjb0
