"crippling" snowstorm

You know it's bad when the meteorologist uses the word "crippling".

Snow-pocalypse.

Shovelpalooza.

Whatever you want to call it, the DC area got smacked with a buttload of snow. My brother had about 13" of snowfall at 1 pm CST on Saturday, with a total upwards of 20" of the weather-created white stuff. The area hasn't seen a snowstorm, or blizzard if you will, the like of this in over a decade.

If the picture of my brother's deck is any indication, it looks like it'll be around for a while. I just hope they don't lose Liam in it.

autumn is here...

And it's apparently here to stay.

This is the outside wall of an apartment buidling on North Stowell between East Webster & East Bradford. Some of the contrast is lost on the picture, but you get the idea.
