Traffic snarled in snow in otherwise sleepy downtown St. Paul, Minnesota. This is the view from our 15th floor balcony. Janie and I both walk to work.

This is such a cool shot! I love the lights! Great share!

Nice view from your pad, Ron. Great capture of the snow and traffic!
Jaye S. Dec 4, 2007, 7:12pm EST
Awesome shot! I love the view. Looks so pretty.
Janet Somewhere Up On The Mount Dec 4, 2007, 7:20pm EST
That is beautiful. I'd walk also. Great Shot.
Ron Hall Dec 4, 2007, 7:23pm EST
Thank you Kayleigh. Christmassy, huh?

Thanks, Marianne. At other times the sunsets are quite nice too, since we face west. Storms also come in from that direction, and I particularly like having the balcony door open during supercell storm events.

Thank you for stopping by, Ja'Nelle! I couldn't resist. Having a digital camera is so handy for that sort of thing. I hate those with-I-had-a-camera moments.

Congratulations, Janet!

Thank you, Mari. I have another shot of the street 5 hours later. I need to get that one up.

At least it's a pretty picture if you don't have to be in it!

On a mission, can't talk now, Trying to give fifty points (at least) to all my connections for Christmas, or whatever:

Ten unsolicited points from the world's worst connection. Merry whatever you celebrate!

Thank you.

great shot
Ron Hall Dec 14, 2007, 10:46pm EST
Thank you, Terry. I was just taking a general shot of the street, and didn't notice the jam in the intersection below. Now that's my favorite part of the picture.

3 1/2 hours spent behind a Greyhound bus wreck going to see Yaya looking at this Traffic jam at the Kremlin, Moscow. When I first traveled to Moscow in the mid-1980s, few people had a car.
