Snow days

This past winter was especially snowy. The pictures above and below are from the first snowfall on November 1st which was the earliest in decades and later announced as "artificially induced" by the government.

The scene above is just downstairs from our apartment. Under all that snow lies Ross and my bikes as well as Silvia's old bike and some of our neighbors's.

Wow, I know it must get a little annoying with all the snow, but you have to admit the photos are really beautiful. Especially sitting in my warm Miami office - LOL!
