Frost on the window pane and jury duty

It was a frost 10 degrees here in Chaumont NY this morning. Snapped this photo of frost on a window pane in the wood shed.

Yesterday was a rather pleasant one for me. I got a couple of hours of GOOD guitar practice in. Managed to paint most of our large bedroom. Did the regular chores too, bringing in fire wood and that sort of thing. The Better Half wasn't doing so well. She woke up with a stomach ailment and spent most of the day and night lying down. Finished the day off with a nice bottle of Thorny Rose Cabernet Sauviogn and watch The Amazing Race on CBS tv.

This morning the Better Half was still feeling ill with the stomach thing. Tomorrow I have to report to Watertown City Court for jury duty. That's all for now.

It's a cold Black Friday 2013

Today is Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. It is a cold one here in northern NY. The temperature in Chaumont was a mere 8 degrees. That's chilly baby. I am working later today for The Post-Standard and syracuse.com. I will be covering events in Armory Square in Syracuse. I snapped a photo from the downstairs bathroom this morning. The dark mass on the left is an out of focus Maple tree. The wall at the right is the back shed that is need of painting. The morning Sun illuminates a section of the backyard fence. There is also some frost formations on the storm window.

If I had shot this photo with the Nikon D300 or D7000 I could have used a small apertutre and increased the depth of field so that the frost pattern on the storm window would be sharp.
