Locked in the Ice

So, how are you enjoying the weather in your part of the state?

Nice image by the way.

Oh, it's been a real joy....freezing my buns off. It's 1:00 in the afternoon as I write this and at 37 degrees, it's the warmest it's been since Monday late afternoon. With windchill, it was 17 degrees Wed. am with sleet. If this wasn't Florida, I'd likely not complain, but really, Florida...really.

Nice image.

We woke up to 12" of snow yesterday. This morning when I woke up it was 1 degree. Last week when I was walking it was -16 with the windchill. I love snow. I love cold. I hate wind. I hate not having plowed roads, parking lots and sidewalks. I hate the whole city shutting down. Virginia Beach does not handle snow like New Hampshire.

Here in Philly we just drive and walk right over the snow. I actually do clear the sidewalk in front of my house, but many people don't bother. The side streets are always an adventure, although the main ones eventually get cleared.

I took a walk in South Philly to take pictures one time a few years ago the morning after a really big snowfall. At one point I tried to walk into a small side street and was blocked by two feet of snow covering the sidewalks, cars and the street.

Oh yeah, Chris, I like the photo. I might crop a little tighter - for me the chain and leaf are fantastic, but the top and bottom of the image don't add anything.

Very cool image. I really like the look and colors.

Nice image, Chris. The leaf adds a nice bit of color.
