Can you guess why I didn't go to the post office today?

I took the first picture earlier today and the second a few minutes ago. It's snowed like this all day.

Today and tomorrow Chicago is looking at maybe a foot of snow and we, 200 miles south and west of Blagoavich country, are looking at 1/2" to 1" of ICE... and snow mixed in. I got my generator hooked up for the first time ever so I've got heat and pool table lights.
 
Welcome to the club :D
We have it like that almost every Christmas and I like it. It makes a distinct change in the every day life and reminds you about Christmas.

Here is the view where I'm currently sitting with my laptop :)

Nice view. Are you in your house?

Currently at my in laws place and the view is from their living-room.
At the far left you would find the worlds strongest water currents due to tidal changes in the sea ;)

Thank's KJ.

Photo has been a hobby of mine for a long time, but the last 5 years has been more and more pool :)
I joined a "photo sharing" page some years ago, and here is some more shots basically from the area I'm in now.
The land of the mind night sun :)

And yes, that's me to the top right, but add some Kg in weight and some gray hair because that was don in 2000 :joyful:

The pic "R?dstikk" (Roedstikk) was the cover of a catalog for medical equipment and tools.

You live in a very beautiful place.

It has it's times. Grew up as a kid in these areas but are living in the main city these days.

Here is a summer shot.

For those interested in fishing, this is the place :-)

Well that's a fair bit in one go.
The snow record in the main city north of us in Tromso (last letter is a O with a / through it) was prox 2.50m :D

Entrance to the houses was like tunnels..
