Snow in the Berkeley Hills


Yesterday morning we woke up to snow! OK, not a lot of the stuff but enough to ball up and throw. It was a gorgeous, chilly morning. 3 of the chickens stayed in the nesting house for the night and 3 stayed on the roost out in the run. Crazy birds! They seemed happy as could be to have their feathers fluffed up by a little snow.

The sun is out today but it is still cold and crisp. The newspaper mentioned that it snowed at this elevation back in February of 1976. My family moved to the East Bay in May of '76 so I missed that snow fall. Wouldn't it be spectacular to have snow for the holidays?














Here are some photos from last week's picture-snapping jaunt down by the train tracks near Gilman Street. I am so pleased with how the pics came out. I love the rough and tumbleness of the images. I am planning to use some of the backgrounds and graffiti for some screen prints. Stay tuned!
