on life & other inconveniences

I think, to fully appreciate the pictures posted below, it helps to know that our house is built on a hill.

The driveway is a hill. The backyard is a hill. And so, when you look up at the house from the driveway, the snow doesn’t always look as high as it is, because of the deception of the hill.

The kids mastered the art of climbing the tree and jumping off into the piles of snow.

Not only do we have to shovel the driveway, we have to shovel the dog out.

Last night, and believe it or not, the kids were outside, making a trail for the dog. Gives you an idea of how much the snow was still coming down.

The trail was completely blown over this morning.

The driveway this morning.

From the driveway, our door snowed in.

Indy decides to dig a tunnel. Does this give you some concept of how high the drifts are? That fence is four feet.

I don’t usually mind winter, but I’m really tired of snow. And the forecast says we have more on the way…

And a Fed Ex truck got stuck in front of our neighbor’s house this morning. That’s how bad the roads are.
