While the sun was setting over the city, it’s beams shone through the cloud cover lighting the backyard tress on fire. With camera in hand taking pictures of the many glistening trees facing West I was mesmerized by the red’s, oranges and yellows on this grey winter’s day. It turned the sky an awesome deep hued ultramarine blue.

The ice storm from last week covered all surfaces and most of it has not melted for it remains well below zero degrees Celsius even during the somewhat warmer daytime hours. I’ve not seen ice last this long on trees before and cars for that matter for as long as I can remember. Perhaps an ice age is approaching…
Needless to say I ventured out shopping (one of my least favorite things to do) and purchased two new sweaters to keep myself warm in these frigid temperatures.
