proof of spring

The last bit of snow.

Valley Forge Park

Snowy Graveyard

Snow covering the graveyard is both sad and beautiful at the same time.

St Peters, 4th & Pine St.

Turtle Power!

This one goes out to my sister, who had a Ninja Turtles birthday party when she turned 4!  Saw this guy in Rittenhouse Square the other day!  Heros on a half shell, turtle power! (if you dont know what I’m talking about- where were you in the 80′s and early 90′s??)

Snowy Trees

The snow in the trees is so beautiful! 

This will be the end of my “snow week.”  Its kind of hard to find other things take pictures of when everything is blanketed and piled with snow but I will try!  Hope you enjoyed all my snow pictures!

Outdoor dining anyone?

The outdoor seating at Jon’s on South St.

snow snow everywhere!

I hope the snow plows come through soon!  Some streets are plowed but some still look like this!

This ones for the birds

You might need your reading glasses but if you peer into the bushes you can see the birds!  These birds are always here, rain, snow or shine (unlike the postman, ha!) and…sometimes they will fly out at you so be careful!

Snow Hair

The guy caught my eye while I was walking around the city.  I love how the snow stuck in certain places, giving him snow hair!

Mr. Snowman

Welcome to snow week!  You may not think snow is as exciting as I do, but since this is my first winter living somewhere that has snow, I am just loving taking photos of it!  I saw this snowman in a parking lot and he is HUGE!  I might try to make a snowman on my back deck later today, but it will be no where near this size!

I hope you enjoy my snow picutres!

Before and after: the 2010 storm

Before and after (actually during).   The top shot was taken at 8:30pm on Friday night, right after the storm started.  The bottom shot was taken at 8:30am on Saturday.  It got worse from there, but I couldn’t figure out how to make 3 pictures look good in a collage!  This storm was the second worst in Philadelphia history!  Needless to say, I will be taking the train to work on Monday! (this isnt my car, but my car does have a big bubble of snow surrounding it)
