Day two after the storm.
We went out, and let me tell you….trying to find a good parking spot and walking around ice is not such an easy thing . I want to experience the whole thing. So…after three days of the city salting and clearing most roads, and with temps warming up to melt the snow, we went out…
The storm is over.
Day two of snowmageddon and so far it felt like the Winter storm from last year and the year before that. I wonder why this one came with so much terror. Exploding trees, a whole grid collapse headed our way, depending on who you listened to in the media world. There was more humor with…
Before the storm.
It looks like we were in the middle of it, what was headed our way. The day before the storm, the stores were packed. People were buying bread, milk and eggs. Looking down the bread isle reminded me of Covid days when the shelves were all empty. I have never experienced this before. Growing up…
A year of photos.

Take a walk back to the Little Lake with me.
There was chatter about that the Little Lake had some very unusual visitors…Pelicans. Sadly I missed seeing them in person because I was so distracted by so many other things. So by the time I remembered, weeks later, by then…they had left. I take walks everywhere, not just the Little Lake. I didn’t see any…
A Christmas full of Photos.
“If your gonna play the game boy…you better learn how to play it right” Kenny Rodgers, The gambler I have been leaving my camera at home a lot lately. We are in our Winter gray right now, which is my all time least favorite color. I have brought that up many times before. There is…
Blogmas day 24…A candlelight service.
Last night I went to a candlelight service. There are no words good enough to describe how beautiful it was. Even the toddler sitting in front of me participated in the festivities, for awhile at least, watching as his Daddy snag along. It was 2 hours long. The baby did have moments of wanting to…
