Our front light post last night just after sunset.
Sigh. Yesterday during the day we got about a foot of snow. It stopped snowing just after 1:00 p.m., and Rick and I got out and cleared the driveway, front steps, back steps and part of the deck. Then it spit ice pellets at us for a while. We were supposed to get snow overnight but when I got up and looked out the window at 2:30 a.m. it had not done a thing. Good, I thought as I went back to bed, they were wrong.
I got up this morning and looked out the same window and much to my dismay I saw more snow! About six inches or so of heavy wet snow. Here are some photos for comparison.
Here is our deck table and chairs yesterday:
Same view but this morning:
Again, the other side of the deck yesterday:
And this morning:
And the poor poolside table and chairs with its “donut” topping. Here it is BEFORE the most recent snowfall:
And yesterday:
And today:
Sorry for the white balance difference. It’s the best I could do with early morning light.
Bella helped me with the deck shoveling. I shoveled, she barked and wanted snow thrown on her, so I obliged.
Here are some scenes from around my house this morning.
The snow is so high that the dogs can walk right over the fence, so I am hoping they don’t figure it out. (Taken in the back yard.)
Bella coming down from the snowbank in front of our house on the street.
Our ever-narrowing street.
It looks like our front windows are wearing toothy white grins!
eBay wanted to help with the front steps. It didn’t last too long but that cat loves the snow!
Have you had your snow fix yet? I know I have. Still, tomorrow we are supposed to get MORE snow — granted only 2-4 inches this time, but still …
We were afraid that they might cancel the RV show because of the storm, but the show is still on. They said that all the units arrived prior to the storm, which is good for them!
