The west side of my house after the storm. (February, 2008)
We had a nasty ice storm this week that managed to suspend public school all week. SIUC was only out of classes for a day and a half, but apparently it was the first time class had been canceled due to weather in over 20 years. This is the side of my house the night after the storm. It looks like snow on the ground, but is actually 3-4 inches of rock hard ice. It was fun to ride a makeshift snowboard/skateboard until the board flew out from under me and threw me flat on my back on the ice. My wrist is still very upset with myself for that. You can view a larger version of this and some other photos from that night here.
How much for a private photography lesson?
Snow is pretty, but being trapped inside your house for three days isn’t so fun. AND… snowboarding is fun too…except when you fall and hurt yourself…and causes you to feel a tad bit uncomfortable for a day or two. And here is the worst…. as much as I want all of this cold weather to go away and the sun to come out and shine warm weather upon us, I need it to snow one more time so you can build your first snowman!!
I think you may get your wish Emily, there is another winter storm heading this way on Thursday. I’m ready for spring!!
