You folks way up north sure get it twice from winter. First you get the snow and cold and then when it starts to get a little warmer you get floods. Sure doesn't seem fair. Hope you don't have to deal with floods at your house!!

Excellent capture of winter danger!! #7379558

EXCELLENT editing on this wonderful image. You found a great spot with good snow forms to capture. You've taken something rather everyday and made it special. :)
