finally, we had our first snow. oh not just the first snow of 2006, but this is a true chicago snow. about 8-11 inces right here, although i heard worse on the south side...

beautiful morning, so with my (found) trusty Nikon D70, i go out and snap a couple...

Hehe...really glad that missed us last night.  We are just clear but a bit chilly :P

At least it doesnt look like you have an inch of ice under all that ;)

Blimey....!
That's a lot of snow... :o...!
Here in England we were forecast horrendous weather over the Winter....
...but so far it's been a bit chilly, now and again, but little or no snow... ;D...!
...and do you realise that today, Saturday, 21st. January, we are exactly one month from the shortest day! (21st. December).
The days are getting longer...
Spring is on it's way....Woo-Hoo... ;D...!

Paul... 8)...!

Yes, we're over the hump now.... I don't mind the snow or the cold; it's the lack of daylight that bothers me sometimes.

had to ask, that was a joke right?

and there are only 4 pictures... which one were you talking about?

thnaks for the comments, the pictures would've looked MUCH better without the size limits, cause i had one picture has was saved on irfranview from this set, but it could only save at a max of 30% to stay under 100kb. it wasn't even worth posting.

oh well... my mom took much better pictures(sh'es the photographer, i just snap a couple when i can)

LOL...!

Cheers Ramos... ;D...!
