From Sunrise to Sunset Late January!

Here's views from this past week starting with sunrise and ending with sunset.

January Looking Like January!

So far we've been lucky as far as snow is concerned, only two snow storms the plows came out for. This post is a day late, I didn't take enough shots for much content but did take a side trip to Essex Monday afternoon. But last week a came across an unusual accident on my way home. A car was sitting on the rocks at Bass Rocks. According to the police a 35 year old local man said he was traveling down Mooreland Road at 50 mph ( the posted speed limit is 25 mph) and "didn't realize there was an intersection there"!


This driver found a road too short!

Looking back into my library I realized how different the weather can be from year to year. Here I contrast between the present and 2009.
