Nice pics!!

Excellent South Shore pics. The effects with the snow are just awesome.

The new North Lot at MCHS

Yeah, as you know, I was supposed to go to Chicago yesterday. I went about five miles down 94 and stuck a fork in that idea.

The lens I was using for those pics is a unique, strange thing called a lens baby. Very strange effects. It basically turns your SLR in to a view camera and you can play with the parallax. Gimmicky but kinda fun.

So you listening to me about not going after all

Geese, on Johnson Rd. south of 20

The photo with the snow blowing reminded me of Dr. Zhivago.

All of a sudden, I was hungry for a small anchovy pizza, light bake!



Waiting for venison-on-the-hoof, November sunshine

At the light on Coolspring Av., looking SW across Franklin St. Midday.





Snow removal on Frankling St just north of Rose Bowl. Midday.

Thanks Rog!!

Wow! You guys did get nailed. We haven't had that much snow this year. Maybe total accumulation since October is that much, but not all at once.

this morning

It's 42 degrees here right now and the sun is shining and the wind is only blowing about 15 mph. It's a beautiful day in Casper, Wyoming!

Great pics, everybody, keep 'em coming.
I guess like the Pretenders say, "my city is gone". Was doing some internet searching and looked at some aerials of MC. Looked at where the MC airport used to be and it's now all built up. Used to be just empty fields out there and a few run down houses. Even saw what I think is another MickeyD's by there. I can remember when the one on Franklin St opened up. Out here all the schools are now prisons (or look like it) with their metals fences. I thought MC would be different, but I can see Edgewood now has a fence all around it. I remember when you could walk across the Edgewood field and play basketball at the hoops. I also remember jumping Ruby's fence behind the field and seeing their oriental backyard. It was cool. I also saw that pic of the snow at Coolspring/Franklin. A CVS? I remember when Hook's was there and you could actually buy chemicals there. I used to buy salt peter and sulfur there to make smoke bombs. I guess I've said the city has changed before, but I didn't realize how much until I saw the aerials and your pics.

Some pics from the lakefront yesterday

Ha, I like the one of the life guards chair on the beach!
Turn off that time stamp!

Here are a couple I took when I was home. They were taken on 12-29-08. So, just three weeks difference from SSder's. I think we were standing pretty much in the same spot. I can't get over the difference between my time there and now!

You guys really DID get nailed!!

Wow, I can't believe how much ice formed over that short period of time! That isn't easy to do on a lake that has as much wave action as Lake Michigan does.

NEVER!
