Icy Day
Yesterday we received more than 1/4″ of ice during the latest winter storm to hit the East Coast of the United States. While it was beautiful to see, the ice proved problematic for people and wildlife. Thankfully, our power remained on, and I was able to work throughout the day on deadlines, with a couple of breaks to carefully tread outside with the camera.

The weather forecasters called for rain last night—and lots of it. With a flood warning posted for our area, it came as a bit of a surprise to hear pellets of sleet hitting the windows while I made dinner. But as we watched the movie Secretariat after dinner, the sleet turned to heavy snow, leaving us with about 3″ on top of the ice. This morning’s sun glistened off the trees and the freshly fallen (unexpected) snow, and I added […]
