The Day After

The Day After The Storm
This past Friday we got yet another snow storm - in fact, it was a blizzard! The next day, on Saturday, it was beautiful, sunny, and a little mild. We were left with a huge snow drift from our front door to about 3/4 of the way down the front walk. It took me nearly 2 hours to shovel, it was that huge. Mind you, about 10 minutes was spent scraping the car off AND taking some photos to document how much snow we have, but rest of the time was shovelling. Today, they are calling for an additional 15-20 cm (like we need more snow!), some freezing rain, warmer temps and rain.

Shelley,
Not living in a place of 4 season, I cannot imagine you have to do all that again tomorrow ...
Once in a while sounds interesting of shoveling ice but 2 hours is really a long time !
Take care while doing that...
Beautiful photo anyway 11

Thanks! Yes, shovelling once in awhile is OK, but when you have to do it a lot...it gets annoying, hehehe. However, this is the first really bad winter we've had in a long time - maybe 1992. Usually we don't get as many storms as we have this year...all since January.
