Default Snow Day

This was taken at 7:30 A.M. 13" of snow at that point. Cleaned Fluffy off and 6 hours later I couldn't find her. The snow keep sblowing off the garage roof and burying her in drifts. It's still snowing and we are just over 25". Time to go shovel more...

I imagine not, and kept it brushed off most of hte day. I took a couple of hours to catch up on some work and and BAMM couldn't see her under the snow. My wonderful wife is out digging her out for me now it's her payment for me shoveling out the lower driveway, 100' walkway and pet area. Snowblower died and doesnt want to start. It's 15 years old and I'm pretty sure the carb is toasted. It's been rebuilt several times and I think it just finally said enough.

Lots of snow indeed! Huh, that isn´t a perfect weather for NBC.
I hope you can handle with all the snow...

I like snow & winter sports and I´m familiar with it, because
I have lived here all my life (3-4 months per year is like that)
