Snow, Lakewood Waits For Another 2.5"

Post by Jim O'Bryan »

A little music for these images. Nick Cave singing...
"Fifteen feet of pure white snow"



Image
Snow storm March, 11, 2011. After waking up from a city with no snow it was amazing to see this!



Image
One of Lakewood's real heroes. A crossing guard that has been following the thread on snow removal on the Deck and now takes a shovel to work with her
to keep the curb area of the cross walks clear for the kids! Really bad, I have to think the only people who are out are those that have to because of addiction or...



Image
... errrrr or have something important to do. Just kidding, was probably just a cup of coffee!



Image
It was a very heavy but beautiful snow. But the kind that causes troubles with...



Image
... wires. Another hero on a ladder on a line in the middle of a storm.



Image
Edgewater Dr.



Image
A tree on Summit.

Image
Up to Lake Road...



Image
Looking East on Lake Road.



Image
Looking like a scene out of the Korean War.



Image
Our snow caught the attention of Chanel 5 News.



Image
Piled high on the meters.



Image
Snow shows the wind patterns in the Emerald Canyon, in its platinum phase.

Stay inside, stay warm it should be gone in 48 hours!

I'd like to see those parking meter poles painted different colors.

This is a panorama shot which does it no justice. The final print is 201" long!
