Noticing the Year: 02/13/08

This morning I noticed that Boston's most dramatic fog comes when warm air rolls into a place covered with snow. I wish I could share the eerie sight of the tree-lined VFW parkway enshrouded in mist, the trees black with moisture above a background of freshly fallen white.

Then just now I noticed that I really don't mind rain, even though there's a ton of it at the moment, flooding the parks. I could probably live in the PNW without much suffering. Alexis, on the other hand, always mentions stabbing herself in the eyes, when we've had more than a day or so.

And since I love her beautiful eyes, and we've been married four years today, and for many more into the future, I'm willing to compromise on that point. :)


Couldn't find a 2004 pic, but here's a nice one from the Summer of 2005

Also, there is a distinctlt pleasant and enveloping odor asociated with the snow-fog...

Happy Anniversary!

By the way, have you ever noticed water vapor coming off of lichens in the early morning? Usually happens on chilly morning the sun's just coming up.

It's so weird that's it's foggy here like ALL THE TIME, and to drive over the bridges in it is kind of creepy...
You think you would like the PNW, but I think it would get to you eventually...it's just so blah all the time, even in summer...and the job market BLOWS...
I'm not sure about the housing market, but I left due to there being no jobs and such....

Happy Anniversary! I think you guys are the most adorable couple in the world. And if you can see it that much on the interwebz, in real life you two must be almost too cute to handle.

Hope you were both able to enjoy the day!

A belated Happy Anniversary.

Here's my gift: http://blogs.earthsky.org/dankulpinski/2008/02/15/new-elephant-shrew-species-found/
How cool is that?
(when I was little, whenever I came across a bug I didn't recognize, I always convinced myself that I had discovered a new species)
