Snowpocapics

This is the lunch break escape for provisions. By provisions, I mean the beer I bought to ensure I wasn't stuck at home with nothing. Thank goodness for Malloy's!


Here's the view from the third story of my compatriot's living quarters. Not too bad at all, just a little windy. He actually complained after our 500 ft. trek back to the office that the wind gave him a headache. I laughed cause, well, that's how I react to pretty much everything.


I mean, talk about composition! This gives an idea of how bad the challenge of snow removal had become around 4:00 pm this evening when I was on my way home. The storm had BARELY begun, and there wasn't a clear road anywhere.


DT Thrill. As previously mentioned, this seemed like the quickest way home, and I'm very satisfied with my decision. Most of the individuals here were well-behaved. On the left you can see Rosebuds in its temporary, non-fire-damaged location. That unit seems to be a revolving door of places, and I can never figure out why no one has had much long-term success there. I digress, snoward!


This picture perfectly encapsulates the moment in time. The white/negative space on the left is due to the blinding nature of the LED flash on my cameraphone (one word, welcome to the future) hitting our maple tree. The streaks are laser-like snow flakes dancing across my long exposure time, and the dog there is trying to relieve herself amidst what might be her favorite environment in the whole wide world. The funniest thing about her in this type of environment is not necessarily how much she loves it. It's that the first thing she does is eat snow. Then she'll run to some spot, look around, and eat some snow. Who knows why, she's adopted. But it's hilarious.


This isn't the best picture (lol, as if the other are masterpieces), but it gives an example of how strong the winds have been. That indentation is about eight (8) inches in depth. NATURE


My foot is in there somewhere!!!

For some perspective:


I live in the greatest city on the planet, and I love every minute.
