Photos From my Walk to Work

Jan 6, 2025

It's the first (hopefully only (but probably not)) snowstorm of the year! So of course that means I have to make Intelligent Fox Decisions and walk downtown for work instead of just staying home like a good little remote employee.

Really I just have an appointment at noon so I have to be out of the house anyway, and I figured I'd stop by for coffee in the morning before heading to the library to work and have my meeting*. But of course because there's over half a foot of snow and ice on the ground the buses are running on a delayed schedule, and I only found that out after waiting at the bus stop for 15 minutes, so I ended up making the 30 (45 in the snow) minute walk to the east end. And took a couple quick pics along the way!

*Of course, after going through all of this the library turned out to be closed due to the weather so, so much for all of this lmao.

Photo of a snow-covered side street corner, with a number of tire tracks eating into the snow on the road and a near-untouched snowy sidewalk.

Photo of a snow-covered road, with footprints imprinting the sidewalk and a small number of snow-covered parked cars. A main road intersection and traffic light are visible in the background.

Photo of an ice-covered tree branch in the foreground focus, with a snowy road and intersection blurred in the background.

Photo of an intersection and traffic light. The road has a light amount of snow with tire tracks running through it, and the sidewalk is covered in dirty plowed snow.

Selfie of me smiling and walking alongside a snowy sidewalk, with a lightly-covered street and power lines in the background. My hair is dusted with snow and I am wearing a tan winter jacket.

Photo of a group of ice-encrusted bushes at a crosswalk. A large brick building is visible in the background, and snow covers the sidewalk around the bushes.

Photo of a snow-covered sidewalk lined with icy bushes. The road is plowed but still lightly snowy, and stretches on into the distance downtown.

Photo of a park entrance, with a sign reading "Thoroughbred Park" on a stone wall. A group of statues of running horses are to the right of the sign and coated in a layer of snow. The foreground is almost entirely untouched snow, and the background is lined with bare and icy trees.

By the way, since I didn't post about it a few days ago, happy new year! I hope you all had a nice holiday and were able to reset a bit for the new year. <3
