Snowy Boston....

nope, this is not a recent photo, but one from our first winter in boston; january 2011. there was sooo much snow! i was just looking at the pictures i took then, and it was even more than i remembered. i enjoyed everything of it; the snowstorms during the night with the wind slamming around our apartment, and the snow just falling, and falling and falling. and me? waking up every so many hours to check "the progress". getting outside in the morning in a perfectly white and silent world... we had several snowstorms 2 years ago, and while people were complaining and saying it was not normal, i thought we would get something similar last year...? but then we didnt, so i hoped it would happen this year....? so far not... but lets see.... tomorrow some snow is expected, but as its not freezing, i guess there will be rain too. but the next night it will be freezing cold.... so... perhaps next week...??! i want to go out and take pictures! right now the weather is actually a bit depressing. its grey and not cold. but not warm either. just grey and boring.... 
above is right outside the public garden in boston; the commonwealth avenue mall, which is lined pretty trees on both sides, and many statues in the middle. i have some photos of those... perhaps i should go find them for another post...

Cat, look outside, it's white! But not for long so shoot some pictures soon ;) Love the red accent in this photo.

This looks very nice, almost like here. We had no snowstorm but it just snowed the whole day, so it was rather a lot.

This is so pretty! We've had weather like yours - freezing, no snow. Plenty of grey. I'm content. Snow gets annoying and very inconvenient after the "Ooooooh, pretty!" part wears off.

Such a wonderful photo - spooky in a way :)

This is a really nice photo, CaT. I like seeing other people's photographs of snow scenes, but I don't love dealing with snow myself.
