We woke up to a bit of snow today. Over two feet fell overnight. I love the snow, and I kept telling myself that while I was clearing it all day. A broken bolt on my snowblower caused a big mid-day delay where I had to drive into town to pick up a spare (that I mistakenly thought I had in the drawer...) The roads were a mess, everyone was struggling. These huge days don't happen often, so I try to appreciate them, but wow am I tired. That was a lot of work.
Quill dog had a great day! He had a lot of outdoor time while I was shoveling. His coat is nice and thick, I've never seen him shiver from cold. He'd stay outside all day if we let him.
Here's my house, early in the morning before I started the snow removal duties:
That's a BBQ on the right, before (above) and after (below).
The Honda 928 gave me some troubles today, but I don't blame it. Look how much snow it had to clear! And it was wet heavy snow, so it kept sticking to the auger blades. I kept having to shut off the snowblower and clear the auger. It took a long time...
Here's my office/studio door below. It took A lot of shoveling to get to my computer this afternoon.
Success! The driveway is now clear and there are paths around the house for me and Quill dog. Fortunately, we are supposed to get a break for a while with no new snow in the forecast. I'm guessing that it will be looking rather photogenic out. Perhaps some new photos soon.
Thanks for looking, I hope you all had a great weekend!
