Mother Nature....(edited)

....seriously, this has to S T O P!!! We are setting and breaking all snowfall records---clear back to the 1800's!! On a sunny day, like yesterday, it's just beautiful...bright blue skies with sparkling white snow (the kind of days that those of you that don't live in the snow (Jean) think are just glorious! It really romanticizes the idea of "snow!" But, then we have days like today---REALITY...blowing and drifting snow everywhere! All schools and roads within 100 miles are closed! (All those parents that thought their kids were going back to school today after the two week Christmas break---SURPRISE!! :0)

This is the view out our front door and the door to our deck...
You can barely see our "For Sale" sign...how will anyone know they can buy this place??!!And, Jeff came over for a few minutes this morning and got stuck... If it sounds like I'm whining...yep, I AM, it's only January 5th! :0(

Oh my word. The picture of your back deck brings back memories of winter 1976. We had snow like that on our screen porch and the drifts were so high in the back yard that our dog could walk up over our 6 foot privacy fence. Wow. Sending warm, sunny thoughts your way.

OMG! You are not kidding! This snow is CRAZY! I can't believe it's only January 5th. I think the kids are just about the only ones actually enjoying all this "beautiful" snow. Well, at least my kids love it.
