I Jinxed It

I jinxed it with my post about where is winter. Well, it came with a record breaking snow fall for a single day.  It took me two and half hours to get home; it normally takes an hour. And I still had to park out on the cross street and walk home. I went and got the car later after I had done the driveway and the road at the end of the driveway too.

Can you see Beckett in the picture below? When I finally got home I let the dogs out, Beckett is the black blob down by the fence.  See the wicker deer, you can just see the back of the feeding deer.

Keltic did not want to make trail, he tried twice to go down to the back of the yard but then did his thing right where he was.

The snow kept falling and at about 4:30 pm you could no longer see the back of the feeding deer. I figure that's about 2 to 3 inches in a couple hours.

This morning I went out and did trails for the dogs. One good thing is that this snow was all powder and there wasn't really any wind to compact it so it was pretty easy to snow blow. Keltic tried to make a trail to the fence himself but only got about half way there.

 See the height of the walls on the trails, compare that to the first picture.  It's been a crazy winter.  And it's supposed to get warmer and rain on Saturday.

  2. It was totally a crazy amount of snow yesterday. I was lucky to get to work from home and not deal with the mess. Glad you made it home safely.

  3. I keep wondering when we're going to get a storm like that....I know it must be coming our way at some point. Couldn't get off that easy!

    Glad you made it home, even if it took you forever.

  6. ack that's a lot of snow in such a short space. I like how Keltic decided to try and make his own trail.
    Glad we don't have that to contend with!
