Snow photos

Snow in Harpers Ferry, WV
Well it looks like the blizzard of '07 turned into 2 inches of snow and a bunch of ice in Harpers Ferry. We decided to take advantage of it, so we did a little ATV ridin' in the snow and rode to the river to check it out.


The Shenandoah River had a thin sheet of ice all the way accross. It was beautiful. Reminded me that summer's a ways off.
