White Flowers

I took these photos Thursday morning.
Yes, it's been snowing again! (This last photo was taken with my brand-new lens, a 6.5 mm fisheye, providing an incredibly wide angle of view.)

New York High Line

The High Line is a park in New York City that runs along abandoned elevated railroad tracks.
It's a popular place and goes through a couple of buildings.
I took the opportunity to walk most of its length a couple of weeks ago when I was in the city.
I was intrigued by some of the artwork.
I definitely recommend it as a place to see if you're in the area.

Back to Winter

We had 14 inches of snow (35 cm) on Saturday, and one of our dogs wasn't happy about it.
That brings our total snowfall to 103 inches(261 cm) for the winter. I'm very glad I had the snowblower repaired.
Both dogs would rather be here.

Another Great Ski Day

The calendar may say spring, but I went skiing again yesterday - there's been two feet of new snow at the ski areas in the last week so the conditions were great on the mountain (although the powder was skied off). And there weren't any crowds - I didn't wait in a lift line once!
Let's go down this trail and see what it looks like.
Steep! (If you don't know about trail signs, a double-diamond is an expert-only run.)
I'll never tire of mountain views in the winter, and where better to get them than on the slopes?
Final statistics according to my GPS watch: 31.8 miles (51.2 km) covered including chairlift rides, maximum speed 33.84 MPH (54.46 kph). And lots of space to move!
