Cold Times

This scene of the Hard Times Cafe was one of my early posts back in May 2006.

Mr. Snowman, Bring Me a Dream

A Room With A View

Just when I thought I was safe from icy sidewalks, Mother Nature laughed and spat on us again. Yesterday it snowed most of the day.

This is what it looked outside my living room window around 9 a.m.

And this is what it looked like around noon.

Another Flavor

Maybe red is your color.

I love the detail over these windows.

Here Yesterday, Almost Gone Today

Not so pretty now, eh? The winter wonderland all to soon turns to an inconvenient, filthy mess. With temperatures in the 40s and 50s the last two days, this mini snow mountain is now amost all gone.

Goose Hill

Last one. I was shooting against the sun for all the goose photos which made me squint like crazy and made it impossible to see anything in my viewfinder. I was literally shooting blind. This one is my favorite.

Can She Be Trusted?

The geese were a bit wary as I crept closer, but a few weren’t disturbed enough to stop foraging.

Temperatures have been in the 20s and teens (Fahrenheit) for the past several weeks. The upside to that is that today, when it warmed up to 48 degrees, I was walking around with no hat or gloves and my jacket unzipped, thinking how nice and springlike it was.

I have some internet friends living in Mexico who start shivering when temps drop to the 60s. Others stoke fires in their fireplaces when it gets to the 50s. To you, Brenda and John, I can only say that I hope one day I’m doing the same.
