    Carpeltunnel,
    the link worked! Beautiful pictures. I could almost hear the crunch of the snow. and the quiet. Hear the quiet - does that make sense?

    Thanks, we love it! Birds & wind in the trees are all you can hear there, unless you make some noise yourself. Very peaceful after a week in the city.

    I find it amazing that we had another snowstorm this week. Yikes!

    I had one more vacation day that I had to use before the end of the year or lose it. That was a perfect excuse for me to walk along the New Hampshire coast yesterday. A couple of shots from my wanderings...





    If you're interested, there are more in my gallery Snow, sand, and the roar of the ocean.

    Beautiful pictures, Denise! That must have been a lovely walk. And the statue shot on your gallery is really pretty.

    This is our looking at our neighbor's house. We've gotten about 8 inches and it's blowing about 45 mph.

    Thanks Deborajen.

    That statue is beautiful, isn't it? A woman gazing over the sea... I've seen it many times, and I had to find the story behind it. It's "a memorial at Hampton Beach to all New Hampshire sons and daughters lost or buried at sea during World War II", story at http://www.hampton.lib.nh.us/hampton...al/thelady.htm.

    No snow here today, and I'm hoping that your Kansas snow doesn't decide to come visit us too! Too much snow this year already...

    Where are you in Kansas? I rolled across your state (from Pittsburg to Tribune, to give you a general idea of where I was) on my cross-country ride back in 2002. I remember some very hot days, and some very nice people.

    Very beautiful statue, Denise, and quite a story behind it. I would have assumed there were more such memorials.

    We're in Wichita. You probably passed not too far from us, but most people usually bike around Wichita - like most cities, I assume. Our weather usually does leave an impression. Between the heat, wind and storms in the summer, it can be quite memorable. The people are great, though, especially in the small towns.

    If the storm gets to your neck of the woods, at least it's a fast mover. We were dry this morning and the sun was peeking through again an hour ago.
