Winter Is Here - What A Bummer!

It snowed last night here in Denver, and today was a gray, depressing, typical winter's day, even though it is technically still fall.  Washington Park (see photograph above) was deserted, except for the occasional solitary walker.  Naturally today was my day off from the DU Bookstore, and so by necessity it was devoted to catching up on things that needed to be done at home.  I just hate doing that.  Wasn't is just a few days ago that we were celebrating the 4th of July?  Does time move faster at altitude?  What did Einstein say about that?
