Following the Saturday morning snow report, the DJ on 301.1 said, "Stay inside, keep warm, enjoy your family." I looked over at my family - two cats curled together on the couch - and went straight for my boots and camera.
I appreciate a little routine shake-up... keeps things human. I walked around a tree creaking with heavy snow and there was Tall Bill, with his yellow hair and snow-soaked eyeglasses. He stopped to ask if Beans was open for breakfast. Yes, I had gotten my coffee there. A path of footprints had already been tromped from the road to the smoke shop. Patient plows and leashed dogs shared the road. Sledders, skiers and snowshoers intersected at Market and Patrick and became acquainted. Later I was dodging real snowballs at Baker Park, rather than on Facebook. I even had a non-business encounter with my lawyer.. I think.
Back in the apartment my warm family still claimed custody of the couch. Cocoa and biscuits tasted better than usual but I confess, I was itching to settle in with my computer to edit and show-and-tell.
Below is a link to a basic slide show of snow storm images.
Yes, you are an amazing writer and photographer Palms. I can picture it all without even having to look at your photo's...although, they are beautiful too.
