It's Monday, February 7th, and there's more snow coming...or so the weatherman says. I think we need to look at some of the more interesting aspects, like footprints, etc, rather than the hassles we may incur! So here are a few observations...
Remember, we TOLD everyone not to come down our driveway unless they had 4WD! This is a picture of some of the ruts, when a friend came down and tried to get back up the driveway. Dennis ended up pulling him out with our Jeep. A lesson learned...perhaps...
We have a ridged metal roof on the shop. Therefore the snow slides off in plank-like form. These were four planks that came off the roof. They started to melt a bit, and then it turned colder again, and so are now frozen sculpture. You don't want to stand next to the building when the next thaw comes, as snow has come off in longer "planks!" The roof on the house is the same, and it can make a lot of noise when sliding off.
When the snow was fresher, and a bit more soft, our dog, a Corgi, was running all through it. She's a stout small dog, but her paw prints might make you think we have a wolf running around. Her pads, and her nails, are very well defined in many of the frozen prints. They also appear to be larger than her foot actually is. If you look closely, you can see my boot tracks under some of her paw prints.
Snow doesn't last forever, unles you live at one of the Poles, so let's enjoy at least some of it!
