Week 5/52 - Getting Outside and Freezing

Icy rain.
Two days away from the office.
Working from home and drinking beer.
Breaking out the "good" camera.
Ma calls and says that Jim Cantore is in Charleston.
I answered emails.
I have two phones in hand trying to answer "warm shelter" questions.
My force support troops took care of business at the dining facilities. 
They kept lodging going.  No issues.
They are awesome
It was painful to walk outside in that cold.
The fireplace was really warm and toasty.
A pot roast was delightful.  Thanks to mommy for talking me through the recipe.
My flight chiefs were amazed at the crazy questions; it's a part of life.
Must keep smiling in the face of cold toes.
Keeping smiling at the end of the storm.
Leon's over. 
Life is good in Charleston.
Bring on spring.

  1. I would rather have snow than ice, but the ice makes for really beautiful photos like this one! I made a pot roast this week too...comfort food on a cold night.

  5. Super, super photo!! Just amazing. It's so very inspirational, too. I see clear quartz crystal nuggets wire wrapped to polymer leaves and long lengths of chain! LOL!! ;-)

  7. So beautiful but so damaging at the same time. Quite a contrast.

  9. Hope you are back to normal now. It is amazing, though how what we up north call a little ice storm can really foul things up. Very pretty, though.

  14. This is a truly beautiful photograph. Get out the "good camera" more often! Though in reality I KNOW it's not the camera, but the eye behind it that counts. Yours was certainly working well here!
