The Aftermath

“What good is the warmth of summer without the cold of winter to give it sweetness?”

-John Steinbeck 

I took these photos the day after the second nor easter dumped 19.5 inches of the white stuff on us.

The Next Day…

The same backyard as yesterday. The tree that was centered in the B & W photo is now to the right. What a difference a day makes! By Wednesday it will be in the 60’s.

Waiting For The Car To Thaw

Looking out of my jeep. 22 degrees with a fresh snowfall waiting for the snow to melt so I can head to work!

The Cold After The Storm

That’s right folks…On Saturday 1/6/18 at just after 7 am, the temperature in Mahopac, NY was -12.  Not believing the car thermostat, I checked two different weather sites and it was confirmed. I don’t think that I need to dwell on just how cold it was with the wind chill! By the way, a week after the snow and cold, it is going to be 50 degrees and raining.

Finally…A White Christmas!

“No snowflake ever falls in the wrong place.”

-Zen Proverb

For the first time in recent memory (my recent memory, of course), we actually woke up to snow falling on Christmas!
