Backside

Here's a look at the backside of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception from Congress Street. There's not this much snow around here anymore. As a matter of fact, Portland's WinteRush, the city's winter festival this weekend is on the verge of being canceled because of get this-- lack of snow! They say if we don't get significant snow by today; it will be canceled or at least postponed. Vancouver can ship in snow for Olympic events, but we can't? Oh well, this year it's not a problem for me. I visited my cardiologist yesterday, and all the signs continue to point towards a recovery that is steadily, moving ahead, on course.

  5. It's rather strange that you have little snow and south of you they're getting clobbered again!

    This is a fantastic photo...great composition with that fence leading to the buildings.

    Lovely light, great sky, but what I like most is that the whole thing is tack sharp!

    Glad you're coming along so well health-wise! That is the most important thing!

  7. A beautiful image of the church spires rising in the blue sky. The immaculate snow beyond the railing is in tone with the name of the church. Speaking of snow, that's a funny story...
    I'm really glad of your steady recovering!
