Happy Tuesday! We hope everyone is having a great week. It seems like a week that we should say – don’t forget your snow boots, coat, and/or umbrella (that should cover all the crazy weather we’ve been experiencing this week!).

The CK Daily – Chasing Frozen Waterfalls ❄️
Happy Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is off to a great start to the week!
I know many of us across the country have been dealing with some frigid arctic blasts lately. Here in Georgia, we are preparing for some VERY cold temperatures courtesy of Winter Storm Heather. By early morning tomorrow, it’s expected to be 16°F with a windchill of 9°F where I live! As cold as that sounds, a look at the extended forecast shows temps even lower at 14°F on Saturday night!
I’m not a fan of the cold and have spent more than a little time searching for vacation rentals in more tropical locations! As much fun as it is to daydream of getting away, the reality is that it’s not practical, so I’ll just have to deal with the bone-chilling weather!
In the spirit of “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” I’m hoping to get outside and hike a bit on Saturday. While I don’t expect us to get any snow, the super cold temperatures should result in frozen waterfalls which I think would be absolutely beautiful to see! We will definitely have to bundle up, but I think it would be worth the discomfort for some magical views! I’ll be sure to share photos if we manage to find some frozen falls!
Stay warm this week!
