That's only because I shoot out our kitchen window and am about 15 feet from the 'puter.

Great photos warp.

Side note to the pics above. We hiked halfway across frozen Mendenhall Lake yesterday but maintained a few feed of distance between us and the bergy bits. Read in the paper today that the ice was unstable due to a rockslide that broke up the ice earlier in the week. I wondered why there were fresh seams in the lake ice. Had I known, i wouldn't have taken the kids out on the ice. Rockslide shatters Mendenhall Lake ice | Juneau Empire - Alaska's Capital City Online Newspaper

Default Heads up! Meteor shower tonight

Tonight there is supposed to be a meteor shower, and for details look at the following:
Geminids Meteor Shower Peaks Tonight On December 13 2013 | PlanetSave

Quote:
The Geminids meteor shower — regularly one of the most prolific meteor showers of the year — will be reaching its peak tonight, on December 13, 2013 (early morning hours of December 14, 2013).

While the peak rate would typically occur sometime around 2 AM (local time), this year you might want to wait until after the bright Moon sets — which will occur right around 3:30 AM for those on the East Coast. Thanks to the high peak rate of the Geminids, and the brightness of its meteors, you’ll be able to see a fair of meteors even while the Moon is out though — so it isn’t necessary to wait for Moonset, if you don’t want to.

And the forecast is for a cloudy sky plus snow in Fairbanks
