Bleakness Here

Manitoba in November is so bleak that I don't know as I've ever taken a photo here in this month. Certainly not now in 2006! So I looked back, and lo and behold! in 1975 I was in North Dakota with some friends staying at a Motel 6, and here's where I actually did take one photo.
I did not break the bed, in case you're a Motel 6 shareholder - just tested it to make sure it would be safe for the night.
