Although the weather outside is frightful, the snow is falling straight down, as opposed to blowing down, which means that when the snow has been shoveled, it doesn’t immediately blow right back to where it had come from. Accordingly, it is fairly easy to get around today. I’m at the Diedrich Coffeeshop near my […] As MT has already noted, Denver is getting socked with another blizzard: anywhere from 12 to 24 inches of snow are expected in the next day or so. This snow is falling on top of the snow that is already there: in the case of my folk’s house, I would estimate that we currently have […] Ah, nothing like the days after the holidays. Yesterday my sister and I headed out to go shopping–first hitting a new Macy’s store on the grounds of the old Stapleton International Airport–there I picked up a pair of Levi’s for $17.99, that came with a card for $10 off my next clothing purchase at Macy’s. […] The weather in Denver emptied the supermarket. Photo Friday Entry (#462) | elmada.com Home Sorry about the long absence: Dial-up is too slow to upload pictures and the weather discouraged me from walking over to Perk Hill—Christmas Eve morning a storm blew in, rattling the trees and making it uncomfortable to walk. Later in the day, just before the house descended into chaos, it snowed again. Today I made […] Today I took a short walk to a nearby coffee shop, Perk Hill.

Second: It is wet snow, straight from the Gulf of Mexico. […] Today I was supposed to visit a sister in a city north of Denver, spending a few days with her. However, my plans have been snowed under: a foot or more of heavy wet snow has covered Denver, making travel a challenge. Instead of driving myself, I opted to take the bus downtown, where I […] I am in Memphis–my flight to Denver departs in just over an hour, and I’ve had my fill of Interstate BBQ, and watched part of the Maury show–enough to make me want to shoot myself. How on earth can that gawdawful crap stay on the air? Yuck! On the other hand, the rest of my […] I’m ready to go. Really. Today I woke up obscenely early, putzed around, did a load of laundry, packed my suitcase, started another load of laundy, popped down to the Weihnachtsmarkt for a present (I decided I would only buy it if I had space in the suitcase, and I did!), had lunch, came home, […] |
