A Storm is Coming

I looked out the window directly ahead of me and saw storm clouds coming, so I decided to dash off a quick blog post on my Remington Model Seventeen (1941).
Storm clouds moving in: 7 a.m.
Close up taken a moment later at 7:01 a.m.
James just added a lamp in the corner that makes this writing space even more inviting.
Progression of clouds: 7:15 a.m.
Even more clouds, 7:30 a.m.
Time to rip this out and put it in the scanner to post!
8:30 a.m. -- HERE IT COMES!

  1. I love those moments when a storm rolls in, and using that Remington to document that moment was inspired. That remmie puts down a very nice print, too. Looks like a great candidate for the rest of your Nano! (:

  2. Great pictures.

    I have never tried one of these Remingtons and really must one day.

    By the way, a colleague who spends 3 months every summer in and around Yellowstone recently turned to me for advice. He wants a manual typewriter! I was happy to point him in the direction of some good machines that will help him out "in the woods."

  3. We have some pretty spectacular storms here in Australia - but i have never been on one when it has snowed. It's snowed in Melbourne a few times, but nothing like I'd imagine you guys would see.

    looking forward to seeing some snow shots.

  5. I love seeing your creative space. The sound of a typewriter reminds me of the early days of work. Am looking forward to the snow pics. Snow always looks pretty at your place.

  6. Between that typewriter and that location, I think you'll blitz through NaNo this month. Seclusion can be so productive.

    I hope you didn't get pummeled, there's been enough of that going on! Stay toasty!

  8. I love watching the arrival of a storm - they used to be so exciting in the midwest. I miss this.
