Snow in NY, warmth in NC

The view from my office window

Blanketed in snow
BNL closes its doors
We still go to work

*****

After work, we fly
Part one of our flight was fine
Part two was delayed

*****

Hiking and biking
Lots of fun with our nieces
A pleasant weekend!

Gaze skyward tonight
A lunar eclipse is nigh!
Deep orange moonglow

*****

Chilly camera
Gene took two long exposures
As the moon "flew" by

Nobody's perfect (except for the '72 Dolphins)

Eighteen in a row
But the big one got away.
It's Puppy Bowl time!!

On the court again


My knee has improved!
I am playing volleyball
Albeit slowly
