An edited photo of Fred’s Foods.
FROM VEHICLE LEVEL, the view of Fred’s Foods in Montgomery, Minnesota, is limited.
Snow pushed from the parking lot forms a street-side barrier.
But for photo purposes, I find this scene visually pleasing—the jolt of red against white, the strong graphic of the building rising above the snow line like a defiant icebreaker charging onward.
Toward spring.

I heard a rumor that spring was coming. Someplace. Sometime. But not quite yet. I love the red graphics, of course.
I believe spring will arrive for you next week.
Yes, indeed. Actually summer for a week. I will bring you back some sand.
And sunshine and warmth, too, please.
Looks like you had a lot of fun with this photo. Maybe Fred’s should hire the guy who made the duck snow sculpture for their own snow pile. A frozen food sculpture, perhaps?
Excellent idea. Now wouldn’t that be something.
COOL Capture!
Thank you. I had a little fun with the photo.
When I first glanced at the photo I thought it hadn’t fully downloaded!!!!!!! LOL! The perfect photo for this winter!!!!! Hope Caleb is doing ok in his snowy location………….. Hugs…
The son reports from Boston that he was supposed to meet w/ the dean of his college today, but the dean stayed home because of the storm. Haven’t checked to see if Tufts classes were canceled. Again.
Thanks for the update!!! Glad to hear things are going along well!!!
I bumped into an Aussie friend today who moved to NYC four years ago. He said he was so pleased to be out of NY and back in Sydney because of the vicious winter. It doesn’t seem to be ending xx
You are correct on the never ending. The northeastern coast of the U.S. was socked again yesterday with a major snowstorm. That includes the Boston area where my son attends Tufts University. And he thought he was escaping fierce winters when he left Fargo. Not so. Sydney does sound pretty inviting about now.
What is this thing you call “spring”?
I’m not sure. As my son would tell me, “Google it!”
🙂 I will if I have the heart.
