    Gooood morning,

    Friedrich and I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas. It has been a fast year and I enjoyed my ride with RT and HF in general. Thank you.

    Hello,

    I'm sorry, the picture is from december 2014. I thought about building something with ice crystals made in the fridge. But I couldn't produce and store enough to even built a small one. I think you have to go above 2000 meters to get some snow at the moment.

    Regards
    Gyro

    Hello,

    haha, just a minute ago there was a discussion on the radio about people whose birthday is on Christmas Eve. Is it a good thing or not so much? I guess it depends on if you are the one receiving the presents or not ;).

    Regards
    Gyro

    Hello,

    one can argue that snowmen are only balls and nothing else ;).

    Hello,

    great ;). It's 08:40PM local time and still 14C outside. I can't smell even a hint of snow.

    Regards

    the wonderful strangeness of northern high desert. yesterday was beautiful clear and not even all that cold most of the day, and no hint of moisture of any kind on the ground.
    but the temperature does go down with the sun at this elevation and this far north, waaay down. only because the pavement in the city keeps it from going waay below freezing,
    as it does if you get far enough away from town.

    Hello,

    here it's clear skies, I can see the moon, crisp and clear. But the dew point is around 5C, so no frost this night.

    Regards
    Gyro
