Well - I lease my home for $1300 a month as well - and you can even snowshoe out the back door..!!!! AND - as a bonus - all the servers/circuits/routers reside in my office above the garage - so you can bring this site (and all the others I host) "on" and "off" to your hearts delight..! In fact - you can even BAN Ed Tinker from those servers and systems..??!

Just sayin' ....

Simple, Thank you John for every thing~~~~~

cirelaw · 02-19-2014, 09:31 AM

Sunrise...

John D. · 02-19-2014, 09:40 AM

You are killing me here.. A beautiful, serene sunrise..!! Nicely done..!

Here is what we woke up to - about 8"-9" of new white stuff...

John D. · 02-19-2014, 10:31 AM

Apparently we have a "globe hopping couple"?? Taken early this morning (2/19/14 @ 10:24 AM).. But - which timezone and city??

Hmm, looks to still be PRC, but in front of a Western-style government-looking building. Shanghai, perhaps? I would say Macau, but they look to cold to be standing in Macau...

Hong Kong would be warmer, too. My guess would be that they are still in N. China. Manchuria?

Background not ugly enough to be N. Korea, and certainly John would have more sense than to travel there!!!

ETA: Guess 2; Like Cirelaw's guess: Moscow, perhaps? Not familiar with the building(s) in the background, looks very SovBlock, with apt. buildings in the background for the apparatchiks...

Sergio Natali · 02-19-2014, 12:51 PM

Of course I was only joking about Disneyland!

Anyway to John Sabato and family: have a very nice Holiday
To John D.: thanks also for sharing the above mentioned photos
and to Eric: well I'm a bit envious, you seem to live in a really gorgeous place; here we are experiencding rainish days and foggy mornings.

Never mind let's wait for Spring.

cirelaw · 02-19-2014, 01:26 PM

Moscow!!! Red and Yellow flags in background!= The former U.S.S.R. ~~ Da??

318is_Parabellum · 02-19-2014, 01:53 PM

Trans-Siberian railroad journey?? Wow, that would be awesome! Want to visit Volgograd (fmr. Stalingrad) very badly...

ETA: True, T-S Railway journey takes about 3 weeks, if I recall correctly...

cirelaw · 02-19-2014, 01:56 PM

Good Guess but not in their limited time~~

kzullick · 02-19-2014, 05:09 PM

It got to 40 here today and Sunny, I was walking around in a t-shirt it was so warm!

John D. · 02-19-2014, 05:17 PM

please send some of that 40 degree weather a little North and East.! We started off today sunny.. As of 2PM (two hours ago)? It's snowing again and still coming down hard...

I feel like I'm in Siberia... Even though I've never actually been to Siberia, I'm pretty sure Siberia feels just like this... Maybe.. Just saying... Sort of...

Nevermind...

Carry on

John

lew1 · 02-19-2014, 05:46 PM

So you are saying that you have snow like in the pictures ?

lew1 · 02-19-2014, 05:46 PM

More

John D. · 02-19-2014, 05:47 PM

Hmmmm... OK - actually, those pictures actually me feel a bit better... Not much, mind you - but...

lew1 · 02-19-2014, 06:13 PM

The pictures show the conditions in part of Russia.

And people wonder why Napoleon Bonaparte had problems there.

cirelaw · 02-19-2014, 06:46 PM

Napoleon was short and was probobly buried in snow half the time!!!

John D. · 02-21-2014, 03:07 PM

Starbucks coffee on the rock - and obviously "tourists", as they've clearly parked their scooter in the "NO PARKING except for Police and Fire Official Vehicles"...

John D. · 02-21-2014, 03:10 PM

A view of downtown Cairo from an evening cruise on the Nile...

I guess...

cirelaw · 02-21-2014, 03:15 PM
