Snow Holiday

President's Day was a snowy one in the Cedar Rapids/Marion Iowa area on Monday morning, February 17, 2014. Shown above are some winter scenes as the snow continued to fall. The top image was captured around 11:06 AM and shows the trunk of a large fallen oak tree forming an arch shape. Only a sliver of Dry Run Creek was visible in the bottom image as I gingerly negotiated my footsteps over the snow covered ice in the creek bed around 11:16 AM. About five inches of snow fell on this location.
