Snow

I haven't had a lot of time to blog since the semester started up in January, but I have had time to document the huge amounts of snow we've been getting. Already we've had something like 75 inches of snow, and February is usually the snowiest month. We're on our way to challenging the record of 107 inches for this area, but we'll just have to wait and see what February brings.

The first snow storm we got down here blew me away, as I hadn't seen that much snow fall at once since I was a kid up in NH. Mark and I ventured out down the street in our boots to check it out.

Our housemate Sarah's truck was buried, as was my little civic

The poor BBQs on our back deck were on their way to being buried

...as was this hanging basket

It was pretty deep (these are my legs)

This is what the BBQs look like now

Our backyard

Basically I'm sick of it, although it is very pretty. Spring can't come soon enough. I dreamt about crocuses and tulips the other night, and I'm just now (sadly) realizing that it was just a dream.

Soon...






And of course, adventures around the garden with Ivy

I may channel my inner bear and crawl into a cave (also known as my bed) and hibernate until Spring comes. See you then.
