Here are a few photos from this past week’s snow storm that brought Portland to a standstill and kept most of us from going to work for a week. The snow is now melting and everything has turned into a slushy mess. I think most of us are glad to see it go, but at least for the first day, it was quite a treat to get to play in such beautiful snow!

This New Years Eve, I decided to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and escape to the coast. It turned out to be a rare sunny couple of days on the notoriously, cold and wet Washington Coast. It was a beautiful way to ring in 2015!
Well, the snow storm of 2014 turned into an ice storm last night and there is a 1/3 inch of ice covering everything! These are just a few photos from around my house as getting out is not really possible right now. I’m starting to get cabin fever though, so hopefully the rain will return tomorrow!
Snow is a rare event here in Portland, Oregon and when it happens we all get a little too excited! For the past 3 days I have been snowed in my house while the the city is essentially at a standstill. Here are a few photos from around my house. Nothing too spectacular, but snow around here is always worth sharing! These are photos from day 1 through today and it keeps on snowing, so there may be more to come.
