Oh, What a Beautiful Morning


Snow yesterday. Sun rising now. Not sure what's being reflected near the center of the picture. Garden fairy maybe? Photo taken at 8:36 a.m.

Winter Boots


Got a little bit of snow today. It was the first time I've worn my boots to work this entire winter season.

First Subzero


According to local weather guru Paul Douglas, today was the first subzero morning this winter. Today set a record for the latest subzero on record in the metropolitan area. Yikes!

Snapped this shot just before getting into the car for work on Friday morning. What looks like the sun shining on the back stoop is really our car lights. Dale was about to take me in to work.

9 Hours Daylight & Full Wolf Moon


We've hit 9 hours and 0 minutes daylight today. It's also the full moon. The full moon in January is also known as the Full Wolf Moon. According to the Farmer's Almanac:

"Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter, the wolf packs howled hungrily outside Indian villages. Thus, the name for January's full moon. Sometimes it was also referred to as the Old Moon, or the Moon After Yule."
