Feb. Stuff

Well, not only is this mildly interesting post my 200th of my blogging career, it is one that will help me reach my goal of posting more than once per month.  Anyway, on with the post.  As you may or may not know, Cathy and I will be taking a trip to Indonesia this summer to visit our friend Amy (Hi Amy!) and her soon to be husband Arif.  Soooo, that trip gave me an excuse to do something I had been wanting to do for a while, buy a new and nice DSLR camera.  I finally did and bought a new Canon EOS T2i.  The pictures below represent my first few shots with the new camera.  Enjoy.

My first shot... my office computer.

The newest addition to my office... two new newspapers.

Blizzard of the Decade

The weathermen/people said that this was the biggest snowstorm in 10 years... I'm not sure I believed them and even though everyone canceled school the day before I wasn't sure we were going to get enough to justify a day off.  Normally, the weather people overestimate greatly the amount of snow.  That is nice, though, as it usually leads to a day or two off of school every year.  Even when I got up this morning it was done snowing and I wondered if that was a right call.  Well, there was a LOT of snow.  Even with a snow blower it took me 3 hours!  here are a couple pics from the day.

PS - I want to live where it's warm.
