Winter in Morgantown, W.Va. 2002/3 |
|
|
|
Come see some pictures of our first Winter together, since I emigrated from England, where the temperatures rarely got below -2C (28F). At the time of writing (22 January, 2003) we woke up to frozen water pipes in our kitchen, the cars were covered in snow and the temperature was just 2F (-16C). Although it's very beautiful to look at, believe me, the novelty wears off, and we can't wait until Spring is back in the air! |

Bernie wrapped up warm on our weekly walk on the trail. It was a "mild" 25F (-4C) but with little wind. |
|
Here I am accompanying Bernie on a quest to keep fit and experience all the seasons together. |

The scenery really is very eerie and beautiful. Not many people venture out on the trail when the temperatures get this low! |
|
The river of Decker's Creek is flowing quite merrily along and there is a tiny waterfall if you look closely enough! |

Bernie's car hasn't been used much because our hill has been really icy and Bernie is not happy driving on ice! |
|
|
|
|
Now the weather is getting really chilly, the coldest yet this year, and only 2F (-16C) and the icicles are quite long on our porch looking out towards my car. It's white, but due to the ice and snow, rather dirty at the moment... |

On our porch, looking out the other direction, you can see our latest windchime, made out of bamboo, a Christmas present from Bernie's aunt. We've heard it quite often, recently, as there's been a lot of bitter wind up to 25mph! |
