Jabba

I noticed this snow creation nearby yesterday so I stopped and took a quick shot of it and was going to drop by by today and shoot it again with the DSLR. Unfortunately poor Jabba is melting and not looking as crisp since the temps rose into the upper 30's and melting has started. Good thing since more snow is predicted for this weekend again.

Unfortunately, or maybe not, we didn’t get more snow. It was rain, sleet, ice and frigid cold and since it’s currenty 10 F he’s a ice blob. The good news is power crews have restored 99+ % of the outages so most everyone is back up and working. I only had to deal with 3 of them. One of them sparks we’re flying everywhere and charred the side of this ladies home. Could have caught it on fire.

One of the other ones was a odd situation with a commercial roof top heating unit. The snow somehow jacked up the normal way the exhaust gas flowed and it kept flaming down and burning the conduit and 3 phase power wiring. That one alone took 3 repair trips in 24 hours until we got to the core of the problem. Paul

Nice coloring. I hope they restore it after the reinforcing snow falls.

Nice capture. It is these moments that make me appreciate smart phone photography - the best camera is the one you have with you.
