Soon We'll Need to Tag Ourselves With Those Orange Road Flags

You may remember my last post of pictures a couple of weeks ago after our first big snow. Have a look back and marvel at how paltry it appears now.***

Since then we've gotten 2 more snows of about 6-8 inches, a bit of sleet to shine everything up and then 10 more inches night before last. We're running out of places to put the stuff.

This would be the little bistro table and chairs on the back porch.



Getting the sidewalk cleared to the front door is now a major project. The top of the snow on the right is at my shoulder height.  On the left there are large bushes that we hope will survive the weight of the snow.



We would move this pile of snow...



But there isn't really anywhere to put it. This is the back patio where we generally throw it to get it off the deck.  Yes, somewhere under the large mound  is the gas grill... I'm sure the mice are quite cozy under the grill cover with all the snow on top. 



Mother Nature has not been behaving herself very well of late. 

*** note to self - never move to Buffalo, NY where this amount of snow is a mere trifle.

1 You know you're in trouble when Alaskans are jealous of how much snow you've got.

You're in trouble.

3 What a great time to build the ultimate snow fort.  And hide your baby sister in it.

5 !!
Even when I lived in Vermont way  back when, I don't think we ever had that much snow.

7 Damn!!!that is all I can say.  Stay safe...I got caught in the wild in a major snow storm once...hiking and camping... I was actually worried I might freeze to death.  Five miles to go, and I could barely walk because it was so deep. Could not see where I was going either. I would call that one a Juju Life Experience.

8 OH MY GOD that's a lot of snow! You could get killed by an avalanche on that walkway!
