It's only October and we have just had our first major snow fall. It came down thick and heavy, sticking to everything including tree branches. Many of the tree branches in my neighborhood — including my own — could not take the weight of the snow and snapped. Our mini-van was trapped in the driveway as two broken branches lay across the entrance. We carefully shook the snow off the branches but we then we discovered another problem. The battery in the mini-van was exhausted. Fortunately she had parked facing the garage and I was able to jump-start her care with mine. Good thing too because we were without cell phone service and would not have been able to call AAA for help. I think the AT&T tower in the area must have either lost power or been damaged in the storm.

October 29th, 2011 - I hate winter
Winter sucks bullocks!
It's grey. It's cold. It's damp. It sucks bullocks.
Because of heavy snow, the trees are all bent to the ground. The power is fluctuating on an off, possibly because tree branches are pushing on the power lines. If we lose power tonight how the heck will we keep the house warm?
Winter sucks!
Day 92 , April 2, 2011 - Walking around
After a week of "unfriendly" weather it was nice to have some warmth today. The sky was full of sun, the air temp was 50°F and I wanted to bask in the radioactive glow of Earth's closes star. Parts of Princeton had snow last week so I took advantage of the weather to go out and get a little sun light.
I didn't go far. I walked into my front yard, down the street to the neighbour's home, crossed the street to the open lawn, walked a bit and crossed the street back into my front yard. Before I realised it had I had over 50 images on my memory card. Finding just the right one for this post was difficult. I decided on this one because the bright colours and the splayed petals reminded me of the sun. I hope we have another sunny day tomorrow.
