THAT kind of Winter...

(There's a backyard in there somewhere.)

GOOD LORD.

It's been a long, cold Winter, yo.

And, yeahyeah...I know what you're thinking..."You're from southern California. ANY Winter would be long and cold to you."

Well, yes.

You've got me there.

BUT...locals were astounded, too.

So there.

Dawn, after an all-night snow. Gas station coffee never tasted so good.

A harvested field a couple of blocks from my house.

My very own Plantsicle™. Oh joy.

It was just after midnight and 14º F when I shot this.

That smile was frozen on my face for 3 days.

And can you believe?...I STILL never made a snowman?!

I had a snowball fight, though!

A couple, even.

That shall just have to tide me over until next year...who's ready for Spring? AnyoneAnyone?
