More Snow

We woke this morning to three or four inches of new snow, which was better than the five to six that the weatherman said we would get. The snow is heavy and wet, and the strong wind plastered it on north-facing surfaces.

The picture above shows the west side of Brookside Creek between Jackson Street and Bunkum Road (which may still be Lincoln Avenue--I do not know why a little stretch of it in the city has to have a different name). In January a work crew cleared the underbrush from this area, so now you can walk through it. It had been so overgrown that it was pretty much impassible. I do not even have a guess as to why the area was cleared. There is a fence that separates it from the park.
