Post-December 25, 2009

So does not feel like much has happened since Xmas...
--
Xmas - vacation weekend. On the second day off from Xmas weekend, I played in a 3-on-3 volleyball tourney. 4-teams, double elimination. My team won... My second championship here. Second championship on a continent. Booyah.
--
The hoped for snow (white) Xmas, did not show up. But it started to snow afterwards. Since then it seems the weather pattern has been 2-3 days of solid snow, 2-3 days of sun, repeated.
--
The snow is sometimes quite nice, because unless there is a strong wind, its often not that cold...But the warming up after causes snow melt and water starts puddling and freezing over, Sometimes there are some large icicles (0-4 ft) forming off ledges and roofs.

Here are some pics (about 24 hours apart depicting the snow-coverage around town and then just a day after the difference)
