WHEN THE SKIES ARE PARTIALLY CLOUDY IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

The sky was grey and cloudy throughout all of yesterday.  The sky is partially cloudy today.  And while portions of California prepares for severe thunderstorms, flooding and mud slides and as a large majority of the United States of America are assaulted by one of the worst snow storms in recent memory (Or so the Evening News makes it appear each and every year), the weather is mild in Columbus, Ohio.  No snow.  No ice.  No rain.  No flooding.  Nothing but freezing cold temperature and the bright green grass here in Columbus, Ohio.  There are times when being a long time citizen of Columbus, Ohio since 1990 has come in handy.  The mild Winter in December 2014 is certainly among those fortunate moments.
And as I'm lost in thought on a freezing cold Thursday afternoon in Columbus, Ohio, here are some photos of Zooey Deschanel.
