2908. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:24:12 PM The snow at the dam is the last of a huge amount of snow and ice that catches there as winds whip across the lake. The last snow we had was some wet snow last weekend, that didn't even collect.
There's one little patch left near driveway, where the plow leaves a huge mound of snow during the winter. It formerly was more than ten or twelve feet high:

2912. Ronski - 4/10/2005 9:30:35 PM As you can see, I've been having fun with the camera.
As for the weather, my partner made me put the snow shovels away this afternoon. (But I didn't put them too far away.) 2913. judithathome - 4/10/2005 9:43:57 PM Beautiful work with that camera, Ronski! Love the close-ups of the flowers. 2914. Ronski - 4/10/2005 11:23:50 PM Thanks, judith.
And not to forget indoor plants, Lachanalia, blue form:

I've an affection for ravens, but redwinged blackbirds are both really attractive, and fun to listen to. 2917. thoughtful - 4/11/2005 1:35:09 PM nice shots ronski...keep'em coming! 2918. jayackroyd - 4/11/2005 2:25:56 PM Ditto. 2919. ronski - 4/12/2005 3:48:21 PM Photoperegrinations yesterday:

2922. thoughtful - 4/12/2005 5:38:19 PM Lovely! 2923. thoughtful - 4/12/2005 5:39:44 PM Last night hubby's cousin stopped by and delivered a quart of real maple syrup. He tells us it's the best maple syrup on earth. He's from NH, so guess where the syrup is from...no not NH, not VT...OH! Yes he swears Ohio's maple syrup is the very best. We've not tried it yet but are looking forward to it.
Ohio...go figure. 2924. PelleNilsson - 4/12/2005 7:46:00 PM Very nice pictures, ronski. 2925. wonkers2 - 4/13/2005 12:26:34 PM Anybody ready for the Eroscillator?? Here. 2926. wonkers2 - 4/13/2005 12:59:12 PM Beware of those high priced California wines. They'll knock you for a loop! Here. 2927. alistairconnor - 4/13/2005 1:44:20 PM "Now, 15 is the new 14." Ha!
Californian success exudes excess. Overkill is the new good.
I saw that film "Sideways". I thought it was OK for an in-flight film.
