Colors Of My Life

I had an early start yesterday.

As I was gearing up to get ready, I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the early morning sky.

That’s a Lotta Snow: #snowmageddon 2010

I never got around to posting it the last time, though a few of my Twitter friends enjoyed it – and this time around it seems it’ll snow for quite a while before we can enjoy another canine romp through the white stuff.

Until then, for your viewing pleasure, here you go (and check out those abs on Lola the basset). Stay safe!
