SNOW - SNOW - and MORE SNOW!

Three Sundays ago we had 8 1/2 inches of snow. I thought that was a lot! Then the next Wed. we had 19 inches of snow. Now that was a lot! We've had a couple of inches since then, and we'll see if we actually get any in this next storm tonight and tomorrow. It seems that whenever they predict a big storm, we don't get much; and when they don't predict it---we get hit hard! The day of the huge storm, it didn't even show up on the radar on the weather page! So here are a lot of pictures of a lot of snow...



It's hard to get pictures that actually show how deep it is, but look at the branches at the right of the front porch.


That's the light post in the front yard, with a yardstick barely sticking out of the pile.



Tom out by the light post. We actually got another 7 inches after this picture was taken!



When we opened the garage, this is what we saw. That's Tom looking out, wondering what he was going to do! We had about 12 inches at this point. That's Dan's car.



All he could do was try--the snow was up to the top of the snow blower.



The storm is finally over! It ended about 6pm, so this is the next day.



This is at the end of the driveway. That pile of snow was taller than I am.



I'm walking down the sidewalk at the side of our house, going over to the Hartman's. You can see how much snow there is everywhere!



This is the sidewalk in front of our house.



Our front door. I don't know if the trees are going to ever stand up straight again.

That was definitely the most snow we have had since we moved here, 9 1/2 years ago. The worst part for Tom and Daniel was trying to get all that snow off the deck, because it had to be lifted up over the railing. It's a snowstorm we won't forget!
