Welcome to Winter


This is one of the 6 times we were out shoveling snow. Got to love the Snowplow Guy! He sure knows how to "throw" a party! (Yes, the snow is up to my thighs here) We got about a foot and a half. It's sometimes hard to measure because the wind likes to make it drift in areas.

Tonka got a new hairdo. Kind of looks like an Afro.

This is the snow coming down (6am) on Wednesday morning. It was a cool thunder snowstorm with lightning. Very cool to watch and listen to. I don't think I have experienced anything like it before. The sky was an eerie quiet light prior to the storm. Almost daylight when the storm came over. The thunder was pretty loud too. I guess it had cyclone-like properties and was a storm of historic proportions.

Little Echo got dumped on. She is frozen to the ground right now (Thursday). Jeff picked a great week to be in Vegas for 'work'. I wish we had a snow blower. This storm had very heavy snow and it was a full body workout in the driveway for Logan and I. The doggies liked the snow. Larry was having a hard time walking in it as the snow was deeper than his height.
