Vox Hunt: In Bloom

2008-05-29T23:22:17Z

Show us the loveliest flower in your garden. Submitted by Allio's blog. This is one of the rhododendrons in our front yard. It's always a guessing game as to whether or not our rhodies are going to bloom each year since we don't take care of th...

Vox Hunt: Celebrate the Earth

2008-04-22T14:05:05Z

In honor of Earth Day, show us something (literally or figuratively) green. This is the stem of one of our daffodils that's failed to bloom the past couple years in the snow that we had last Friday. What? It's (partially) green. :-)

I don't want to be walking in a winter wonderland

2008-04-19T17:59:28Z

WTF? It's snowing. Again. It's not sticking yet but there's definitely white stuff coming down from the sky. The 6 inches of snow we got last night was just starting to melt too.

Let it snow?

2008-04-19T02:56:33Z

It's April 18th (9 days til my birthday) and we have about 3-4 inches of snow on the ground. And it's still coming down. In fact, Seattle set a record today for the latest snowfall in a year. The previous record was April 17, 1972. It's gotten...

You know it's cold when...

The spiky frost starts showing up on the trees. It's pretty but it certainly makes me think twice before stepping outside. (I wish I had had my actual camera with me walking back from class - I could have taken some really nice pictures.)

2007-12-03T20:25:43Z

Remember all the pretty snow in my pictures from Saturday? Well we got more snow Saturday night/Sunday morning (making a total of close to a foot of snow on the ground) and then it started to rain. It hasn't stopped since. It is currently 48 de...

Walking in a winter wonderland

2007-12-01T21:13:15Z

I decided to take today off from my seemingly endless amount of homework so after I wandered around the Ware Fair for awhile I went out and took some pictures around campus. The sun ruined one shot I wanted to get so hopefully when I go back on c...

Frosty the Snow(mail)man

2007-11-29T22:06:22Z

I came back from class this afternoon to see this on the mailboxes for my apartment complex: It's snowed about 3-4 inches in the last 24 hours and it has yet to stop. While I love all the white that is now surrounding me I wish the slush would g...

First snow of the season

2007-11-18T17:13:19Z

Well, kind of. Two weeks after we usually get our first snow there is finally white stuff falling from the sky. It's technically mixed rain & snow but the snow is still there. (Although, the snow does seem to be the majority now.) The snow may...
