that is the question!
Here's the deal.
We got a ton of snow, probably 18 - 20 inches!* It started to snow on Saturday late afternoon and continued without let up until about 7 PM Sunday night. The wind was blowing like crazy and the snow was drifting into great piles. In some places the wind blew the snow up so much that there was bare grass. David went out and it was up to his knees. Some of the drifts I wouldn't even try to walk through because I know I would be lost forever! (I went out during the storm and made a video, but I am totally unable to figure out how to put it on the blog for you all to see). Today the sun is out and you could get snowblind! I thought of taking some photos to post, but to tell you the truth, I don't think you would be very impressed. It's hard to tell how deep it is in a picture, the bare grass spots are melted, the driveway has been plowed -- a bargain at $40 -- the streets are already melting and this particular snow (at least in our neck of the woods!) didn't accumulate on the trees or cars. I'm heading out later and if I see anything that would make a good picture, I'll post it here so you all can see. Suffice it to say that it was a really good blizzard -- just not very photogenic!!
*Edited: I just listened to the local evening news and it seems they think we got 12 inches, with some local areas getting more. I think we got more since it was up to David's knees. In our yard we have spots that are 1 inch and other spots where there is over 2 feet. Just trying to keep things accurate! ;)
