It must be wonderful to live in a city with so much history and rich heritage.<BR/><BR/>I took that picture the week before Christmas and it was really strange, because I took them near my husband's office, which is about 3 miles from our house. At our house, it was all rain, wet streets, grey gloom. But only a couple of miles away everything was ice and snow and white magic. I felt like a total geek out there on the edge of the Intel parking lot taking pictures of trees and snow, until I ran into an Intel employee doing the same exact thing! We're lucky if we get one good snow (good enough to stick for a day or two) around here each winter, so it always feels special when it happens.Sharon Hurlbuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04684319527146674878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11729476.post-1168855403088603952007-01-15T02:03:00.000-08:002007-01-15T02:03:00.000-08:00sharon - we had one day like that just before new ...sharon - we had one day like that just before new year's - the park looked like the realm of some ice queen, so beautiful. as if the trees and bushes had been born white. *S*<BR/><BR/>but our winter is strange - we have had temperatures from 46-61F lately - way, way too warm. it should be something like 14-32F, or colder. i am not complaining about the lack of snow, i don't like it in the city, and i am not a fan of extreme cold, but this is not normal - and giving me headaches. but i enjoyed sitting outside the belvedere palace on saturday afternoon, staring back at <A HREF="http://www.gardenvisit.com/je/belvedere_garden.jpg" REL="nofollow">these sphinxes</A>. <BR/><BR/>mmichihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477831910779342533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11729476.post-1168807981511308132007-01-14T12:53:00.000-08:002007-01-14T12:53:00.000-08:00Heather - Thanks!
