Cleaning lady in the lobby today at work sprayed the outside of the glass doors with windex, and by the time she swiped at it witha rag, it was frozen into a big hazey patch. Much chuckling ensued.

It's warmed a bit here, toying above and below 0F now.

The more it snows...tiddley-pom

We've just gotten about a foot more on top of our 14 inches or so of existing snow...there's a lull right now, but more to come they say.

I put these up in the Nikon thread earlier, forgetting about this thread. Here are two taken about 20 minutes apart this morning, so you can see how fast it was coming down. We got about a foot with a few more inches due tonight when the tail of the storm comes around. My brother's place in Roanoke is at 22" and counting, but they're in Florida..... worrying about how their house is doing. Years like this make me deeply thankful that we moved out of our house into a condo several years ago. This one would have been a BUGGER to shovel - very heavy and wet snow...

All of which means another snow day for my wife and all of the other teachers in the area, extending summer vacation back over a week at this point...

Wow, Ray - Roanoke with 22 new inches and counting!

Hey, your condo idea is sounding better all the time!

I can feel the weight of this winter in each of your pictures. To spring!

BB: looks like you've got a gorgeous piece of property, though I imagine it is a bear to dig out of in winters like this one!

 

[BBW]

Gee, thanks Ed - it is beautiful, we look down upon the Housatonic River...thankfully quite a ways below so our house won't be flooded when all this snow melts and the river overflows its banks... This is our first winter up here, so it's all new to us.

The snow is about two feet deep...and thankfully my husband is good with the snow blower and knows how to fix it!

more coming today….

That Impala looks like a beauty, too.

That Impala looks like a beauty, too.

If I'm not mistaken, the Impala has a special 'historical vehicle' license plate…..may be a participate in the annual 'Dream Cruise' Woodward Dream Cruise - Wikipedia

My long departed 1974 Ford Pinto would of qualified for a 'historical vehicle' designation if it had managed to still be running in 1976….slight exaggeration

 

[BBW]

Now that would be a cool cruise to attend!

Wow, a Ford Pinto. I remember them but never was in one.

I'm glad you did Steve - is that your place with the barns? Love the bucolic winding drive juxtaposed to the reality of needing barbed wire.

 

[drd1135]

Just one of the many places on my road that keeps cows. That tunnel/bridge is pretty interesting. It's one of the bridges that was built for a railroad line long ago but never used. The Valley Railroad - Abandoned Rails
