holiday 10 (by jratlee)

got the camera back last night.   so, this is a kratlee.com original (others i didn’t post to my flickr are on hers).

i suppose walking through three feet of snow after knee surgery was on al’s bucket list.

kratlee:

it was all fun and games until alex started throwing snowballs.

seriously, he chucked this one at the dog. right in the kisser.

sorta bummed to not be at home base for the storm.  maybe that’s because i’ve been stuck in my apt. vs. a big house.  forgot my sorels for a 2nd time, too.  camera, as well (hoping there are some good ones of the snow!).  glad to see young squire out and about.

got a head start on 2011.

also in 2011, very early in 2011:  vacation.  after this, i’m pretty pissed at myself and need some time away.

Winter Carnival: This Time I Mean It | The Awl

so, all the weather hysteria taking place this winter is mainly because global warming is starting to break up consistency in seasons.  winter isn’t winter, all the time.  when it is winter?  people freak the f’ out and make ridiculous graphics and create stupid (albeit hilarious) nicknames.

my favorite part about this graphic is “impassable roads.”  in a normal person, that’d tell me to say inside and not go anywhere.  for someone like me, i really look forward to driving around in the snow.  stupid and fun, all at once.  proud pillars of the american conscience.

this one is fun too - reminds me of war games.
