Boy howdy, did it snow here this last week. We got 43 inches of snow in 6 days and most of those days were so windy that it was technically a blizzard and we couldn’t see more than 20 feet outside of the windows. Thankfully, we didn’t lose power and didn’t really have anywhere else we had to go, so it really wasn’t a bad experience, though cabin fever is definitely starting to set in.
We have several trees down in the woods and the old dugouts by the baseball field have collapsed partly. The funniest is the big backstop behind home plate.
Its just made of chain link fence, so full of holes, and its like a real regulations size backstop – but the snow fell so fast and wet that the weight of it has folded the backstop in two. These were all things we were going to ignore for awhile but now we might need to take them down sooner rather than later.
It’s kind of hard to tell what this picture is so I’ll just tell you. Its the 4 foot fence we have in the backyard for the dogs and those little black squares are the very tippy top.
The dogs are loving that they don’t sink all the way through the snow and that the fence is effectively 6 inches tall now. They just step right over. Fortunately, its very easy to see where they went. :)
I think I’m about done talking about snow so I think my next post will be about brownies…
brownies sounds like a fabulous idea for the next post! I’m still shocked at all the snow you received…as I’m sure you are too!!! Stay warm!
Alas, poor brownies. I knew them well.
Mmmmmmmm.
Yum, yum.
