If You're Hoping For Christmas Snow Like I Am...

[Sarah G]

Please post the prettiest snow you see.

The prettiest snow is on TV, up North, WAY away from me.

I hate it, and the noise it makes squeaking under your feet.

I got a lifetime of snow at the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park last year.

You are welcome to all of it.

IRL, no.

I vent here, but damn it, I went up to see that NMP, and virtually every restaurant in town was closed.

I am a Louisiana boy, we like our snow every ten years.

Well wish for snow in NW Ohio and post some pretty pictures.

Just for you, a snowy scene to warm the heart.

Yankees freezing, joy to the Southern heart.

IRL, my heart wishes you all the joy, and sweetness and light, and snow, that you desire.

I'm with RoadRunner...
I like the way we get snow in Houston...rarely.
I really dont mind it down here because it melts in a day or two and we'll have seventy five degree weather later in the week.

Münsterplatz, Bonn, Germany, 2013. The statue on the right is of the composer Ludwig Van Beethoven. The large church to the left is called the Bonner Münster - Catholic. You can always tell by the number of corner towers whether or not a bishop ever had that church as his residence (in which case, it is called a "Dom" and not a "Münster). The magic number is 4: four corner towers means that it was once a Bishhop's home.

Historical cannon on a lookout point over Bonn, Germany, called "Zum Alten Zoll". The bridge in the distance on the left is the John F. Kennedy-Brücke (Bridge), one of three bridges that connects the eastern part of Bonn (the "left" side of the Rhine) to the western part of Bonn (the "right" side of the Rhein). The church in the distance on the right is St. Mary's Church (Catholic). I once lived one block from that church. The crane in the distance is where they were building a new set of medical buildings in that part of town, called "Beuel", right at a very large intersection called "Konrad-Adenauer-Platz".

Konrad Adenauer was the first Chancellor of the fledgling Republic of West Germany, called into being in 1949. The Germans specifically picked Bonn to be the new capitol as it was a relatively small city with a rich musical history and actual no important military history. I have visited Adenauer's home, not far from Bonn.

Hope you enjoyed the pics.

I want a white Christmas.

No snow please
1. I have to drive to get to a job
2. Plumbing starts without a building with a roof so I will be out in the environment
3. I said please.

 

[Sarah G]

Me too. Let's keep hoping.
