Hey Barry, nice photos of your neighborhood!

The snow looks SO pretty from inside your home- where you are nice and warm, lol. You camera did really well with the night shots, too.

That was interesting reading about the old school, quite some history there.

Your roads and the parking lot look like around here, they've done a great job of clearing the snow this winter so far. We are due for that same storm on Tuesday into Wednesday. :( I bought a new snow thrower 3 years back, it is self propelled, and I REALLY am happy to have it this year with all the snow we are getting!

Great pictures, Barry!! Even though I saw a ton of snow in North Carolina at Christmas, It's still beautiful. :)

I love the pictures where the snow is falling. Great work on all the pictures, Barry. You are really brave to be able to live with all that snow every year. Amazing!!!

Love the snow, so pretty.
