Let it Snow!

The other day it started snowing.  They had been predicting a few inches but when it finally got here it just snowed and snowed. Snow is wonderful stuff - it looks great while its falling and it looks great once its done falling and you've done all the clean-up.  But doing the shoveling can get to be quite a chore.
This particular storm ended up dropping quite a bit.  If fact, for our area it came real close to breaking a long time record. As it was, it beat records going back over one hundred years.  It came real close to breaking the all time record for a single day's snow fall.  We got just over nine inches within a 24 hour period.
 Having a snow blower makes cleaning it up a whole lot easier.
Now all we need is for the city to quit coming by and turning it back into our drive-way.  They have a rule about not throwing the snow into the street.  Why can't that work both ways?

That's a bit of snow! I hadn't realized that it was quite so much! That last picture is my favorite. It just speaks volumes.

That last picture seems to me as a kind of David and Goliath picture.
