A little blizzard. Treated with Tanya.

Will it beat the legendary 1967 one? My Lakeview Lake Shore apartment windows are shaking,  but so far holding up (they'd  better: in Chicago terms, I am paying a fortune for this place). Yes, somehow  I made it home; Evanston likely cut off from Chicago for the next couple of days, Northwestern closed for the time being. No better time than now for listening loudly to Gordon and Byrd's Tanya: Part 1 + Part 2 in the original 1964 recording; later Tanya sample with Dexter Gordon proving his worth. A tune indeed* one flight above pretty much anything else. Blizzard-proof, too.

* some credits due to my jazz-expert friend Dean

Furtuna sau Tanya? Prima o mai imblanzesti, a doua musai s-o primesti cum vine... :-)

Airflights from Europe to US or Canada cancel until the 4th of February. Good luck, this looks like a biggie..

At least it's an absolutely fascinating view, everything under snow. And it still goes on, strong

Maestre orice da' nu poa' sa fie ca zapezile noastre . Ia vezi: "e ziua si ce intuneric mai spune s-aduca si lampa, te uita, zapada-i cit gardul, si-a prins promoroaca si clampa" No?
Tanye si sanatate sa fie!

Neica Bacovia, ai dreptate: gata, s-a oprit. Cum ziceam si in titlu, "a little blizzard" :-).

LOL
