25 inches of snow!

Well folks, I write you from the now frozen north. It was quite an adventure, and yes, I finally have power back after Friday, Saturday, and Sunday without power. That was not a fun adventure thank you very much. To follow, are a few pictures I took of the mess that this snow made. Figures I escape from the frozen south and end up frozen into the freaking north again!

Well, this is the road. Yes, the road complete with one very large tree down the center of it. 

I didn't get a picture of me standing near it, but it was a HUGE tree!

This is the front of the house, grandpa included. 

Check out the snow on the power lines from the house to the street!

I was so certain the trees all around us were going to fall all night. 

It was not fun to be sleeping upstairs around the falling branches.

In the top left you can see sky, that used to be a tree!

This is what the road looked like by our driveway. Check out the snow on the trees!

This snow was WET and Heavy and it was bringing branches down.

To walk around and take these pictures I had to listen constantly for the sound of limbs breaking.

So I could dodge out of the way if necessary.

The next day the snow just fell in huge icy chunks. 

Grandpa got nailed by a few before giving up on a dog walk and coming home!

This is what the driveway looked like.

You can see the small path I cut to the top of the driveway!

I cannot believe the snow we got!

Holy cow!

And, last but not least, this is the aforementioned front of the house with the huge table of snow.

Yes, the table measured about 23 inches, but we got a lot of wet slush before we got snow.

just wow.

In the background you can see that there are broken tree limbs everywhere!

So ends the picture show of the frozen north. I'm super glad we got power back and cannot wait to see how things keep going. We are at March 1 and the grandparents begin moving in 21 days!
