I didn’t sleep much last night. I’m not one of those people who finds the pitter-patter of (freezing) rain on the window to be particularly soothing, and my waking thought (all four times) was “I need to get up and take some pictures of this.”
The roads are still unsafe.
The trees are still being damaged.
I’m just happy that everything is so pretty.
Every little blade of grass has its own little sheath of glass.
The word “crystalline” comes to mind.

these pictures are gorgeous.
are they from ocean township? over in manasquan we weren’t iced over too much… though the roads were still awful.

These are from Ocean Township- my front yard, actually, as even the sidewalks were somewhat treacherous. Thankfully, most of the ice seems to be melting today.
Thank you for your compliment- I greatly appreciate it!

Beautiful photos….love the grass. If I had this outside my window, I’d use the shots for the rest of the year.
How are the windows? Is there any frost on the windows? I remember Joenesu, Finland DP did some great photos with that….

Ame- As long as the trees are made of beautiful glass here, I don’t care what kind of weather you California freaks are getting! Glad you like it, too.
Ja- Yeah, I took something like 40 shots, and I may use some of those again tomorrow… and the next day… since everything is still iced over…
No frost on the windows, though. Freezing rain is wet like normal rain.

post the sexy grass photo.. it arouses me hugely.

Well, I’m a tease, so I’m afraid you’ll need to wait a few days for full arousal, JJ. But I’ll get around to it. Probably.

i would love nothing more right now than to park my bare glowing red hot bottom onto that glassy carpet…..too much sun!!
February 17, 2007 at 7:34 pm
Glass is not comfy! I imagine sitting on this grass in your bare bottom would be much like getting stung by 50 bluebottles at once!

You misled your entire entourage! Shame.
Feel free to save and use my Stare of Death as you see fit.
