Description Our drive a few days ago after even more snow.

Panorama made from 4 pictures. Photos converted from RAW and stitched in Photomerge. I liked it better as black and white.

Who wants to come over for a hike?

You have so many trees!

Too many trees. I spent today blowing leaves out of the flower beds for 2 hours!

It is a nice piece of property.

It's very white and pretty and inaccessible right now. I want to climb the hill but I don't think I'd make it five feet up with all this snow.

We're about 50 miles east from downtown.

We're supposed to get even more snow today.

Oooh yes! That would be a blast. And I think they have it at one of the downtown hotels, too, so we can go to the North Market for lunch.

Sounds good to me. It's a nice drive to town and I never mind - too many years driving to Youngstown and back every weekend has inured me to long drives.

LeftWingDuck In reply to AreteEirene [2010-02-18 14:17:50 +0000 UTC]

Well we drove 50 minutes or so to and from Katsucon...but if they have a schedule released well before hand saying when the 18+ panels are we should try to spring for 1 night at the con hotel as those run late....but yeah on my 9 hour drive to Meghan's house I only stopped 1x and that was to wee, eat and refuel so I'm very good on long trips.

I'll take that as a compliment

2 stops to wee on the way back but I had been downing water like a nerd. Then I made a 3rd stop b/c I saw a sign for A&W

There's an A&W up in Polaris. I'm not sure if there's a closer one to me here. There's one about 10 miles from my mom's house, too. She loves it.

I generally stop every two hours or so, even if I don't really have to go. On long trips I like to get out and walk around. I try to alternate gas stops with bathroom breaks.

I do love how trees look after a good sticky snow. This time has been a bit dangerous though; the branches are so low. The ones overhanging the drive hit the car like a car wash.

Awesome job putting them all together! I don't know about your area of Ohio but I know my area is expecting a few more inches of snow going from Sunday into Monday. It sux so bad. But I do just LOVE how peaceful it is when the snow falls and seeing the white blankets on the trees. Awesome shot! You really captured the moment.

Thank you! I was lucky and Photomerge did all the stitching work, so I didn't have to use my manual stitching program.

I believe we're supposed to get a bit more snow as well. It snowed a little yesterday but nothing more than a light dusting. I adore snow but when it's this thick it makes things so difficult. I can't even get up our hill for more pictures because I sink in up to my knees with every step.

Ha!

I could definitely use some of my recent photos for some Narnia fanart. This snow has made me sympathize with the poor Narnians and their 100 years of endless winter.

They're working on Voyage of the Dawn Treader, but it's not a Disney film. I think Fox is making it.

I think I'd rank it #3 in the series for me. It's one of the better books.

It is very pretty in the fall. I've got lots of pictures; they'll go up eventually at my stock site.
