White Christmas




First look out the window Christmas morning.



Looking out the front door






Backseat photographer making pictures on the way to daughter's apartment on campus



Even though it continued to snow throughout the day, the streets weren't too bad, mostly just wet,



thanks to temperatures hovering right around freezing




and these hard working Alabama "snow plows"




Not many folks on campus during Christmas; all quiet at the fitness center




and even on Greek Row



Later temperatures dropped and streets began icing over. Several were closed, including I-565, Memorial Parkway, and other roads at higher elevations, but we got home just fine after a fun Christmas Day with the family on campus.

  4. Lol! GHT: thanks for the compliment. One day I hope to have better photographic equipment once again. My cell phone and the Coolpix just don't do the trick. Sometimes I think of dragging out the old pre-digital SLR's that I so loved using, but messing with getting film processed is a pain these days. I used to do my own black and white when I had darkroom access. Those were the days!
