in like a lion

I was going through the pictorial archives the other day and stumbled across these two. I took them exactly a year ago (March 1, 2007) when the sky fell on the Twin Cities. The school district I work for almost never cancels school because of snow (it's Minnesota, right!) and they ended up having two snow days in a row.

This was out of my apartment window.













Here's the other one from that day. The picture's quite different now. It's clear skies and there are actually workers re-siding the building in the pictures as I type this.
