My word of verification was "shnee" very close to the german word for snow. I thought it was woert to point out that most of these artifacts has been made possible in large parts because I have more or less been snowed in since before december! I am happy you are happy and I hope it continues to snow. It snowed today it snowed yeasterday and the day before ..... Fortunately there is around two hours if decent daylight that gives me enough time to take photos of 10-30 albums a day. And funny thing is that the quality is always better when there is no sun. I love the sun but I also like good quality photos, as it means less tweaking in photoshop!
There will be many many more goodies before the winter is over and I knwo what is coming I only wish I had more time to spend on editing. Tell your friends and family to check out this place and don't worry. The vaults are very deep! Have a nice weekend, more coming tomorrow. Very good music I promise!
