Late March surprise...

We woke up to a beautiful snowfall yesterday. It also snowed a good part of the morning today. Luckily, it didn't stick. The garage in our building is underground so I got stuck today due to a layer of slick slush on the exit ramp. After a couple of brave souls cut a path in the muck, I got out. Barely.
In non-weather-related news, an electrician came on Monday and installed all of our lighting. My vote for the coolest fixture is the chandelier that B bought that has small bulbs as well as candle holders . It creates a great atmosphere at night although we haven't yet dined in the dining room.
Below is a long exposure shot of our building at night. The chandelier in our "wintergarden", as they call it here, is beautiful from the street (left side of picture, second floor). My camera failed to capure the gentle shadows the candlelight cast on the construction crew's portapotty, but trust me, they were there and they were lovely.
