you just make sure to keep all that snow right out THERE where it belongs ;)

was it really windy after the storm or something? was just looking at the minimal amt. of snow on the roof. hopefully your builders put in the insulation they were supposed to. can't imagine THAT much snow melting off that fast.

so long as it's blowing off, that's cool....... at least you aren't melting it thru your roof :)

the pic of the street sign makes the snow look REALLY deep :(

If it wasnt for the car as reference, I would have thought I was looking down an Olympic Luge track.

and there is one of the MAJOR differences between what the males see and what the females see.....LOL
(although after KD pointed out the luge thingy, it was obvious by seeing the hood ornament ;) )


saw the car, but paid no attention to it...... but sure noticed the dog. what is her name again? :)

LMAO KD......great observation :D

probably doesn't look much better at your place, eh?


We got 28 inches of snow here about 20 miles south of Baltimore. I cant even imagine what the hell the 51 inches of snow that fell out there where Jack is in Garrett County is really like. I am sure the pics dont do it justice. I am just glad we only get this once every 5-10 years instead of every year like you all get in Minnesota, Buffalo, etc.....

The worst part is yet to come when the flooding starts this weekend, and now they are calling for 2 inches of rain this weekend on top of the snow.

Just when you're down on one knee gasping for air, trying to get up for the standing 8 count, Mother Nature gives another kick in the ribs when the ref isnt looking for good measure.

hey, keep MN out of this.....LOL (now buffalo is a different story with the lake effect stuff) but i think in the twin city metro, our TOTAL snowfall so far this season is only about 21 ") and most of that melted as it fell....LOL my first winter here, there was a record snowfall of 30.2 inches on halloween, and since then, i swear Iowa gets more snow...LOL Can't speak for northern MN tho, as we don't get north of the cities too often, but here it is more known for the bitter COLD than the snowfall. :(

What the hell is that ??

What the hell is that ??

Appears to be a brown snow rat. :p



Ever thought of making your deck a "trap-door" deck ?
When it gets full of snow just pull the lever from the comforts of your family room.
