SNOWED IN, SNOWED OUT

It has snowflurried, snowsqualled, snowstormed, and just plain snowed every day this week. Schools, highways, sports, and even Santa appearances have been cancelled. You have to get to your grocery and gasoline shopping between squalls and the driving has been treacherous. Accumulations go up to a foot and a half on the deck.



So, not much to do except shovel. All the way down the hill and all around the hardworking go-to Kia.



The one-shovel-wide groove downhill matches an Olympic luge run. Any takers?? The house could be our Christmas card. Even the birds at the feeder are red!



Kind of redundant to say all we're doing is clearing snow, but it's true. The squirrels have had to dig a network of tunnels to salvage seeds dropped from above.



It's not quite winter officially, but it's December in Kemble so what do you expect? The worst thing is we couldn't get to a family gathering in Michigan, a chance to catch up on everybody's news. But we'll try again later this month --- see you soon! In the meantime, the icicles are like jail bars trying to keep  us indoors. Oh Canada!
