Still snowing

Still snowing . . . freeways are closed . . . neighborhood roads aren't even being plowed . . . most businesses are shut down (especially those who's roofs caved in). I knew my work place wouldn't close, so I planned ahead and brought work home with me yesterday, so that I could work from home today. But before I started working, Ken and I went outside to take some pictures. I know these just won't do justice to the multiple feet of snow we've had within the last few days, but use your imagination. Also take into consideration that it rained for a few hours last night, which melted some of the snow . . . and caused more problems.

The wind blew a lot last night and created these cool drifts off of the roofs. I'm surprised that the trees didn't break from the weight of ice and snow.

Knee-deep on Ken.

They're doing a pretty good job of keeping our driveway plowed - it's a full time job though - and the piles are piling up.

Still more snow coming . . . and they say we could get another foot of snow before it's over (which I think makes about 4-5 feet by the time the storm passes through on Saturday afternoon). I haven't seen snow like this since I was a child in Utah.
