Cool shot, I like the sky gradient. The telephone poles give a good sense of the scale too

Thanks! It was a crazy day. Was traveling up to Van Buren, and it got down to -25! It got so bad, that the road to Presque Isle was closed. So we had to take another route to I-95. At some points, over half the road was covered in 5ft high snowdrifts.

I can't say I miss Caribou, but I do have fond memories. I have no real reason to ever visit, but I'm planning to visit Maine in general for the 2024 solar eclipse, so maybe I'll end up in my old stomping grounds just for fun. I haven't been up there since 2008.

Yeah, love it.

Not fun for driving in, but if you live up here, it's great looking out the window.

And the crunchy snow afterwards is awesome.

Great shot.

It's an odd thing to miss, but I miss that. Doesn't really happen in southern Maine. So closed in down here. You have to go to the ocean for openness.

Looks like you are about to drive into the Nothing.

You should join the mages' college in winterhold, if you've got the aptitude.

Been there. Late night headin’ back to Loring 1980. Almost out of gas in my VW Scirocco.
