Winter Solar Spa

Posted on February 7th, 2011 by Richard. Categories: Just for Fun.

This feathered Indianapolis resident and a number of their relatives were enjoying a sun bake at downtown’s exclusive outdoor solar spa. If the sun’s shinning and it’s the right time of day, the angle from the sun hitting the highly reflective bronze-colored windows of the tall building just to the north on Delaware Street beams down upon and raises the temperature significantly of certain spots on the brick courtyard patio at the City Market.

The predictions for the “big ice storm” has everyone buzzing. “Wintery Mix” coming…OH NO! Are we going to be OK? Of course we are.

Brush with Death

Where were you when the “big one of 2010″ hit this morning? Well, unless you’re a REAL heavy sleeper, or maybe you were singing in the shower with the water running, or driving in your car at the time, or somewhere else insulated from noise and vibration, then you probably felt “something” for a few seconds this morning around 8:00 am. I wouldn’t think that even any minor damage could have resulted from it around
