Plz to Spring? Plz to warm(er) weather.

I fell getting out of my car yesterday when I stepped onto ice. It was one of those - 1 leg still in the car, 1 leg slid out from under me, 1 hand on the ground catching myself and one hand holding onto my car, and one dude watching probably doing everything he possibly could to not laugh. Damn you Minnesota.

Here's a picture of a waterfall in Minneapolis. It's not a huge waterfall, but not small either, but it's frozen solid nonetheless. The "door" on the left it probably 5-6 feet tall to give you scale.

 

March 20th FTW!

I care about my safety dood! If it had not been only 10 degrees at the time, I would have taken extra effort. But I was freezing my ass off and was lazy. =)

That is just tooo damn cold. I hate it when it warms up and the snow starts melting.. then the next day BAM below freezing, and you have a sheet of ice on the ground. I fell like 3 times this year already. LOL.. for some reason, certain buildings in Chicago, have these marble type stone sidewalks in front of them, that basically become death traps when it snows or rains. WTF!? One of the "L" trains that goes underground has a station covered in that freaking stone, including the stairs leading underground. I'm surprised no one killed themselves over there yet.

Nope - they've got the lower section all blocked off. I'll be able to get down there later though when everything is melted.

Blocked off!?!? You are a photographer you can't let a little thing like that stop you! :)
