Snow fatigue

Yeah that's right. I am so over it. Sick of scraping the windshield everytime I go out, sick of stepping in slushy streets and having to wear boots, sick of looking like the Michelin Man in all my layers of clothes and waking up to the sound of the snowplow in the middle of the night. I have a bad case of snow fatigue.

Sit around and wait

My Dad is in the hospital today and they are keeping him overnight. My sister and I spent many hours waiting with him in the emergency room today. He looked better when we left him this afternoon. I have never seen the emergency room so busy. They did not have a room for him for hours and we were all waiting in the hallway. Hoping he will return home soon.

Snowed In

 I didn't really get snowed in, but after last night's storm I didn't get a chance to take any photos today. This is from yesterday at the Duck Pond in Winchester. You can see the bench was nearly covered with snow. After last night's snowfall, I bet you can't see the bench at all today.

An idyllic spot

I think the duck pond in Winchester is pretty any day of the year but it is never more beautiful than during a snowstorm. It actually reminds a little bit of Japan. A peaceful spot to sit or stand and take in all it's beauty.

The Victorian

Another day, another snowstorm. Crazy weather! As I was driving home from work I noticed how pretty my friend's hair salon looked in the snow, So I had to jump out and snap a pic. I took the shot using instagram so it is cropped a little weird. Oh well, still pretty.

The day after

The day after the storm is always so pretty. The glare from the snow can be blinding so sunglasses are in order. The snow is so clean and bright, if only for one day.

Another Snowstorm

We had a foot of snow today. It's February so it's kind of getting old now. I really have to clean out the garage.

The Romance of Snow

Stopped at a red light and in the center of my hometown, I decided to record the graceful beauty of the falling snow. Everything looks better with a dusting of snow.

Bracing for a Noreaster. Up to 24 inches of snow possible in my little corner of New England. The Christmas decorations are still up on the Common giving a little color to an otherwise wintry white scene.
