Bubble Remnant at 10 Below Zero

 Bubbles only seem to freeze on my deck when I do not have my camera phone with me.  This is what was left when I had to go upstairs to get my camera after a bubble froze and stuck around on the deck.  

Whimsy

 Whimsy = playfully quaint or fanciful behavior or humor (or decorated art car).

This made me smile yesterday.  

Stone Arch Bridge

We took a short walk today over the Stone Arch Bridge. It would have been even better if the person was wearing a Santa Hat. 

The temperature is in the 50s today, so this isn’t totally ridiculous.

River Road

Yesterday, it was spilling over in the form of a puddle in two different places.  As of today, they have closed a section of River Road.  While it’s still not that bad, it makes sense that they closed the road.  When you look at the river itself, it’s a lot of water and it’s moving fast. 

Rhubarb Resilience

 

After the 04/01 storm, we have had a run of snow-free weather such that almost all of it has melted.  This past week, we had temperatures hit the 70s and even 80s.  Today, we are getting snow, although it’s hard for it to do much accumulating. 

April Fool’s Day

It’s been a long, long winter.  It’s the first time that it’s ever tested my love of winter and snow.  I really needed the  several week break from new snow and a lot of melt-off, which was fortunate since I woke up to 9 inches of fresh, wet snow on April Fool’s Day.  It was in the forecast, so it was not a surprise.  It also helps that even thought it was heavy wet snow that was hard to shovel, it was also beautiful!!!

The first picture was from my phone.  One of the cats was looking out the window and the light was lovely just in time to take picture. 

Right after taking this picture, I bundled up and went to explore my yard and the block.  

I also have two other pictures from my neighborhood.  These are taken in mid-March.  

Someone "official" must have spotted the cross walk because it's been turned back to "normal".  While it was like this it made me laugh everytime I saw it. 

Riverview Theater

I adore the wallpaper in the powder room at the Riverview Theater.  If they ever make the bathroom bigger or replace the wallpaper I will be sad.
