Default Freezing Rain

Being retired means I can enjoy the beauty of today's freezing rain instead of having to drive in it. Unfortunately my photo skills don't quite do it justice.

Tony, I learned long ago......I don't drive in freezing rain, even if one is still 'working' (I am), no job is worth it !

Cool pics, Tony.

We missed the freezing part down here but not the rain part. It's pouring here!

A good night for us PNW denizens to be inside listening to music.

Tony.......Your photos were a stark reminder of my eight winters living in Portland, Oregon. Freezing rain was a common winter occurrence. I don't miss that at all.

Balmy 14 F outside in SE PA right now. Those pictures, as beautiful as they are, only remind me that we are in for a cold, cold winter. Spring can't come soon enough.
