New Haven snowman dies

The snowman didn't last very long. The warm heavy rains melted the snow quickly.

A photo was taken every 10 seconds to create the time lapse.

Victor's Cafe in New York City

Snowy and windy day in New York City (Forrest Hills).


We ate Atuthentic Cuban food at Victor's Cafe in Times Square. We both had delicious steaks. I had the $10 churros for dessert.


After dinner we went to a dress rehearsal of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" with James Earl Jones as Big Daddy. The acting was great. The set and lighting could have been better.

Six more weeks of winter

That's what Punxsutawney Phil predicted when he saw his shadow this morning. This year, his prediction will affect us because... we have a real winter. I don't believe Phil. It's been a mild winter so far. Only a few days with snow.

The movie Groundhog's day was on. I watched it in HD. This movie is becoming one of my favorite movies.

Winter in Orange County

We spent the holidays in O.C. It doesn't excuse the inactivity here for a whole month.

Here's a photo of a tree in late December. It still has leaves on it.

Snow photos

Around New Haven.

The snow bulldozer

Heard some noises outside. It was a guy clearing the snow from the driveway with a bulldozer. No shoveling for me.

Lots of snow.

We got about 4-5 inches from this storm. Lots of snow, then sleet, then more snow.

Rubber mats for the car

Changed out my carpet mats for these rubber mats. This will come in very handy when the snow comes.

Target in the Northeast

You don't see sleds like this in the toys sections of a Southern California Target.

Second snow storm came today. Here's a video and some photos.

Beep! Beep!

Got some Road Runner brand salt to put down. Suppose to make the ice melt away. We'll see if it works.

Ice and leaves

Walking to the gym i spotted some leaves in what use to be puddles. The temperature dropped cause the water to freeze. Some very beautiful photos.

Frozen plant pot

The hydrangea pot didn't have any drainage. After it rained and the temperature dropped, ice started to form. I've brought the pot inside just to melt the ice and dry it out. Hopefully the hydrangea I brought on the road trip from California to Connecticut didn't die.

De-icer fluid for the windshield wipers

Suppose to melt the ice on the windshield. I think it also adds a layer to protect the windshield from gathering ice on it. We'll see how well this works.

Light snow then sleet

We woke up Yesterday morning to snow. It was very light but still made the black pavement gray. At night there was sleet. I guess that's rain that's really really cold. What happens is the ground gets wet and then freezes. This creates a layer of ice on everything. In order to walk, you gotta shuffle your feet because there is no traction. Valerie was driving and the car skid.

Light snow.


Ice on the car from the sleet.
