Digging Out 12/31/2010

Digging Out - the snow continued to fall until the
wee hours of the morning......
Today we are digging out preparing for snowstorm
#2 which is to drop 4-6 inches by 10 pm tonight
and more through the night.
As for now there is still some blue in the sky
and the temperature isn't bad



Hubby is putting his tractor to good use and
getting the hang of the snowblower - he has had
to do some fixing but I think things are working now....

The sleds are ready and waiting.... we hope to get some sledding
in later today but also taking in a movie "True Grit" if the
weather holds out....



The last day of 2010 - hard to believe when 1985, 1989, 1993 and 2007
all just seem like yesterday! I have a remember 2010 post and hopes
for 2011 post swirling around in my mind but not yet in a hardcopy!
Stay tuned......
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!

Thurs., December 30, 2010

The weatherman has been talking about this storm and
then the next storm to follow.... rain, snow, wind and
-30 below weather coming on the weekend.
Thank goodness, my sister and her family, beat the storm
and are safely back to their home....they left just in time.
Today, Thursday, December 30th we woke to an icy
sidewalk - Hubby slipped and slided his way to work.
My walk to the mailbox found the temperature very nice but windy.
Then after lunch the snow began to fall - lightly at first then
by dark we had plenty to shovel.

Hubby started the shoveling






While the dogs ran around in the snow - the snow was coming
down and blowing so much it was hard to take pictures....
My plan for the night is to grab a cup of hot chocolate, a
blanket and hit the couch --- after I make one
more trip with the shovel!
