And it just keeps on snowing...

We've had 57 inches here in town so far this season, most within the last month, more snow than we've seen in ages. It's still coming down and is supposed to continue through the night. We're running out of places to shovel it to. :)

1. FULL trees, too - great for a flop of the stuff down your neck -

when you least expect it, of course! I think we've gotten just enough cover this year to protect pipes from freezing when the bottom drops out. We like to have at least 2 feet before it gets to 35 or so below. Seriously, though, we're praying for more - the Quest this year is looking at some rough road without it.

GREAT photos, Blue!!

I'm at work and the filter is blocking the pictures from showing up. But I bet they are beautiful. I will take a look later at home.

3. Wow

that is spectacular, though I can see where it would be a real pain in the ass to have go get around in.

Here is just rains and the magnolia next door is blooming. Go figure.

4. Those are so cool (pun intended)

Had that happen in WA shortly after I moved back here from Juneau, very deep soft fluffy overnight snow. Hope you have fun, take the days off without fretting until you can get out safely. As a cousin who lived in Anchorage said, everyone expects to get their car hit, so you just don't worry about it?
