Late

March 26, 2012 · 4 Comments

This is my favorite picture of our house.  In fact, it's one of my favorite pictures ever.  Our neighbors took this picture exactly one year ago today - March 26 2011 - after a huge and unexpectedly late snowfall blanketed the city.  You might think I like this picture because of the way the snow delicately frosts each tree branch, or maybe because it looks like there's a ...

November 1, 2011 · 6 Comments
