Bob singing in the White House. Scary to even think about it. No fire in the belly.

storm 021010

A white day full of muf­fled sounds. Almost every­thing a whisper.

The snow is still falling and the sky is the same strange yel­low as last night. Per­fect sym­me­try 12 hours later. It has been a night and day of quiet obser­va­tion. An occa­sional muf­fled voice heard with the crunch of boots on newly fallen snow. It is a joy to be so quiet on the inside too.

Still­ness.

snow right now!

The sky is a weird yel­low and the snow has already cov­ered the cards and side­walks. It’s 9pm. We have less than an inch. I’m plan­ning on adding a num­ber of wid­gets here on the blog tonight.

Snow:
years of anger fol­low­ing
hours that float idly down —
the bliz­zard
drifts its weight
deeper and deeper for three days
or sixty years, eh? Then
the sun! a clut­ter of
yel­low and blue flakes —
Hairy look­ing trees stand out
in long alleys
over a wild soli­tude.
The man turns and there —
his soli­tary track stretched out
upon the world.

courtyard

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.
