Sun Dog.

I had to include this pretty picture of a Sun Dog that I took from my driveway this morning.  I first noticed it when dropping Landon off at school and had to snap a picture.  Of course I had to Google the phenomena to see exactly what it was.

A sun dog is a bright spot in the sky appearing on either side of the sun, formed by refraction of sunlight through ice crystals high in the earth's atmosphere. 

I had never seen one before and I will say it was breathtaking.  I guess it was something positive about the frigidly cold morning.
