"Pray that it may not happen in winter."

Good advice from Mark 13:18, and that is pretty much how I feel about everything this time of year. I don't care what kind of poetic beauty you find in it. I do not like it, and it is still coming for me like that shiny guy in the second Terminator.

At least I have these beauties to carry me along (see pics and marvel).

Ever wonder who the "ham" is in my family?
