Blowing Snow

When I got to Stewart Park, the snow was blowing and wind was whipping around. This time I didn't camp in my truck but actually stayed at a dorm room at Cornell University.

Frigid Winter Day

Years ago for a conference, I went to Ithaca during mid-winter. Stopped at Stewart Park on Cayuga Lake, and it was very cold.
