Snow over 28 inches in Philadelphia
This is what it looked like in our courtyard yesterday. Over night the wind was blowing so hard that all the windows were covered in snow and we couldn’t see outside. I found this little gap and shot the neighbors doing some shoveling. Of course after they had spent an hour doing this the snow removal firm showed up and plowed. Silly people.
We usually are parked out there. But with the help of our pals David and E we put our car in a garage for friday, sturday, and Sunday. We’ll shovel a bit and get it back in place. Thing is we are expecting snow again on tuesday and wednesday.
This is our second huge storm since moving downtown.
There is something about this photo that made me select it for this post… a quality that I can’t quite explain.
Maybe it’s the distance and lack of clarity. Something about trying to see what was happening with an obscured view.
It almost feels like home movies that my dad would take of us. Worn unclear over time.
