I do have a lot of snowstorm pictures, from this year and previous years. In fact so many that I am not looking forward at all to the processing that still has to be done—but it will happen one of these days ;-)

Perfect for the theme. I followed the link and would vote for a different ending, but it was very enjoyable storytelling!
