Day 10--Snow Day



Much to my surprise, the weather-folk called it right: we got all sorts of snow around here today. Probably around 8-10 inches. True, it took me 90 minutes to get home, but I got off early, so it meant I had plenty of time to clear the driveway and then get out for some pictures.

I was out taking "arsty" pictures, when I realized that snow around here means one thing" sledders at Killer Hill. So I hopped in the car, and sure enough, there was plenty to shoot at the hill.

It was a tough call between this and another arty shot, but I think this captures more feeling than the other shot. Surely, for youngster, a day off school and the thrill of boarding down a hill and getting some air is hard to top. I had another shot where he has more air, but you can't see as much of his face, and I think that really sells this one.

So the snow was nice, in its way, but I think I'm ready for spring now. Hopefully this was winter's last huzzah for awhile.
