Winds sound like a freight train passing on through.
The Famous Anonymous kid has a tour of Rutgers U today. I went there myself. We are waiting to hear from Columbia U. Her interview at Columbia went very well.
Hunter in NYC accepted her also but for her it is a choice between Rutgers and Columbia, both excellent schools. She wants to be a doctor like her grandfather so both have wonderful medical colleges.
Now, here is a small collection of photos taken throughout the seasons.
As always you can enlarge any photo to full size by clicking on it.

| Or, just stay in bed..... |

Winter skies can be so pretty.
