So it has now been snowing since sometime this morning and piling up where ever the Kansas wind blows. Some of our pictures from the front yard. Note: the yard slopes down toward the street away from the house and at this point is almost level from the street side up toward the house. In the foreground is some snow we had to shovel to get the car in the garage after Dan came home from work. Thankfully Staples closed early (3 pm instead of 8pm) so Dan got to come home and spend more time with Tara who had the entire day off. Thanks Jeff and Bobbie for closing. The roads were really bad and it wasn't fun being out on them.


The South side of the house and the fence line. The snow beside the house reaches the top of the tall fence approx. 7 feet and the front yard almost to the short fence approx 3 feet. Thankfully we have covers over the windows that lead to the basement buried somewhere beneath the 6.5 or 7 feet of snow.

A shot down the alley when someone was trying to get through. He was walking away from me and made it through with some effort but not before...

falling over at about the half way point to his crossing.

Out the back door to the porch and yard. Compare to the picture form our earlier post that shows what is buried below this pile. You can hardly see any of it at this point.

The air conditioner and the butterfly bush in the top right corner. Hopefully the bush will still bloom well this year even after this cold in the middle of when it was starting to warm up.

Mickey having yet more fun in the yard. It seems like he come in just to warm up a bit, then he whines at the door to go back out and run around in the fluffy white stuff again.

Covered with snow on his face it was irresistible not to get this picture of him.

Since there was so much snow in the driveway and street dip we had to shovel a path for the car to get in the garage. Tara came out and helped, but ended up with a battle scar for all her efforts. Hopefully it will heal fine and not cause her to much pain. D

Now that is some snow! Enjoy!
We were hoping for that here in CO, but looks like it got to you instead.
