Strange Book Idea

I always seem to have a sixth sense about when the power is going to go out. I'm also one of those people that turn off and on streetlights by walking by them. Maybe it's a super power I just haven't learned to control yet. So at 2:16 a.m. this morning I wake up, look at my alarm clock, and five seconds later the power is gone. It always makes me nervous for some reason, so I go out on my balcony to wait it out (because even though I could've set my phone alarm I don't trust it). It's been a while since I've been able to enjoy watching the snow falling at night. I love the way snow looks falling around street lights, I love how snow sticks to the tree branches and power lines, and I love how it catches moonlight and you can see for miles.

So while I'm waiting for the power and staring at the storm I start thinking of how many amazing picture opportunities this early morning makes, seriously my little downtown street looked like a calendar picture...and then I got an AWESOME idea! You know how I know it's awesome? Because when I woke up this morning and looked at the notes I made it was STILL an awesome idea. So it might take a couple of years, but it will be fun to try. Really it's probably equivalent to the Seinfeld episode where Kramer's coffee table book turns into a coffee table, but I'm quirky like that so if it is so be it.
