There seems to have been snow in the server from time to time, and then everything was just white. Hopefully, the issue has been solved now.

Come wind, come sunshine.

The plot thickens.

Cold here, 20 below zero for 1 week in the NW Rockies. Thanksgiving day wild west to southwest winds warming to 40 above this weekend, wild weather this time of year. Maybe get a tractor to plow out the 6' drifts on the driveway in 2011. My trees look the same, at 20 below it hurts to breathe, Happy Holidays to all !

Even more (and still more luck to come),

Lucky Bugge (r)!

Dreary.

Yesterday, for my lunch break, since it was about 68° f, high wispy clouds, bright sun casting speckled shadows across the pavement through the trees, showers of colorful crisp autumn leaves blowing about, I took a co-worker's 11-year-old grandson for an hour-long motorcycle ride on rural 2-lane backroads, wearing light nylon windbreakers.

You can have the  50% grayscale skies with white stuff on frozen ground.

Nice effect! Did you do that in photoshop?

Egad, frozen triffids!
