My boss shot this, two weeks ago yesterday.It was dumping snow, we were the only two on the slope.Me, Iboard.Shot with the 35mm, two days ago.I had to use up a roll of film.Friday, it's snowing. Less than 30 remain. 

Three Thong Thursday

The daylight is lasting longer, the snow keeps getting deeper.The temps are still near zero at night, not much better during the day.Of course, this is my contribution to global warming.Spring is on the way, but it's nowhere in sight. 

35 Reprise Snow

I'm rested, for the first time in a month.I like it.One of my favorite areas to capture.A bench.  A bit of snow.Round it goes, racing around, to come up behind you again.

Briar Saturday Vids and Pics

Monday, 11 February 2008 4:43 P GMT-08
It's a shame that I pay good money for my blogging software.Of course, if it worked like it should, I wouln't be bitching about it.Embedding YouTube vids should work seamlessly, since blog-cityhas a dedicated menu button for such things.Yeah,

The weather is cold and snowy, and has been for most of the winter.It has warmed up in here, however.When it's cold outside, everyone tends to stay indoors a bit more.Don't be shy, leave a few comments.My thong models are beautiful, the weath

Legislators in Michigan are pushing for a mandatory helmet lawfor skiers and snowboarders.I wear my helmet on a daily basis, but I do not believeit is the governments place to tell me that I MUST wear one.They (legislators) claim that it is in the in

I missed what was probably a great powder morning at the ski resort.A water pipe busted in my basement, partially flooding it, running thewater heater dry, and ruining the heating elements in the water heater. The fix was simple and fairly cheap
