MORE SNOW PICTURES

Icicles hanging off the north side of our house.
The longest is about 2.5 ft. (0.76 m)
I've never seen this at my house before!

While Steve and I ran errands around town Saturday, the
kids were smart enough to play in the snow.
Catherine and Steph pose for themselves while someone gets a shot of Mitchell "boarding" down the south side of the house. These kids are in the habit of taking wheels off skateboards and riding the decks on the snow. This time, however, Mitchell had a little run-in with a bush catching a branch in the face. That's going to leave a scar.

By the time Steve and I were done running errands, enough snow and ice had accumulated so that we couldn't quite make it up the hill and home. We tried putting chains on the tires but they didn't quite fit so after abandoning the car on the side of the road, I walked up the hill to home. Through the snow...wind blowing in my face...toes getting cold...(dramatic enough?) Okay, we left the car four houses down the street.
