Yay! More winter!

Here are my snow boots. They were my mom's a million years ago.....

I waited for 30 minutes  for my bus today. I am actually happy it was late. It gave me a chance to see the ice crystals on the plants near by! These look better on Instagram @jessies6005 to see them.

This is not the bus stop with the cool plants.  Mom and Dad, check out the stop ID number!

Have a good night!!

Yeah... I know I promised adventure, but that didn't happen today because I am still LAZY, but I know that is eventually going to change, there is only so much stuff around the house that is interesting.

It started to snow again tonight.... now I know in most places this is not a big deal, but here, in Portland, it is a huge deal and everything shuts down and you can't drive anywhere...... part of me wants to have another day off, but then I will just have to make all the stuff up on a different day....

I guess we will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.....

My Dad brought me a great present at Christmas!

Yay!! My very own Macro Lens! Dad had sold most of our lenses from the "olden days" but for some reason he saved this one. Subconsciously, I think he knew that really I wanted one. But the one problem is it is an FD lens, not an ES lens.....

To fix this problem Dad gave me this dohicky. It lets the lens work on my camera!

Joel just brought me a present......

It's a snowman, he built it on his way home from the mailbox.


Have a great night!

I did get my other artwork up on my Facebook page.

Oh, hi there! I just wanted to let you know that I clawed my way out of the 2016 abyss and am ready to finish what I started.

2017 has started off alright, the most awesome thing is my photography is being featured at the West Linn Library, in West Linn, Oregon. I was supposed to have a reception today, but the Mother Nature decided that I needed to stay home instead. It snowed yesterday and today was an all day freezing rain fest.......

I have rescheduled my reception for January 29th. If  you are around come take a look. If you aren't here let me show you what you will be missing. And snacks, you will miss snacks too.

I thought this photo would be bigger.......

I did go out and brave a death trap to find some icy photos.

Not Kidding...... DEATH TRAP!

The stairs did hold some interesting texture.

The Fit is not Go. It is stay put until this clears up......

I might have not taken the best photos today. I am sure there were lovelier things to see, but on my walk about I nearly fell 20 times, so I had to look at my feet the whole time......

That is all to report today, I will see you again tomorrow!

Have a great night!

I know you are all missing Inky..... You can follow her on Instagram: @msinkyjones

While your at it you should follow me too: @jessies6005  I share my photos, other art I create, and  other instagrammy stuff!

It rained last night, that isn't new, but it was freezing rain, that made the morning more interesting.

I'm ready to face the cold!

I went to Cooper Mountain Park today. It was supposed to rain buckets this afternoon, but it didn't.

Joel just wanted to be in my blog again today.....

Hope everyone stays warm and dry! Don't forget to like my new Facebook page!
