shmogiceland.

just made up that word.
it describes what utah has been like the past couple of weeks.
a gross, smoggy, foggy, slippery, muddy, snowy cold iceland.
in case we all die of cancer-like toxins from this air, here are some pictures of what it's looked like around here lately.

this is taken up on the east bench of SLC, which means theoretically you should be able to see all the way out to the great salt lake.



i couldn't get the garbage can back into it's normal spot on the side of the house (because of the piles of snow) so i just temporarily pulled it up in front of the garage. mistake. all the drippings from the roof made our garbage can a giant icicle. the whole top is one solid piece of ice.

and just today, a blizzard blew in and we are currently being dumped on. again.

i mean, i suppose i shouldn't complain too much. things can always be worse, right?
but then again...i'm kind of complaining.
i'll take an order of SPRING please.

PS: ice storms = weirdest thing ever.
