Enough snow ?

There's a full sized garden bench under there, somewhere!

The driveway and walks require clearing yet again ... just wake me up when spring arrives, lol!

    We got dumped on and drifted in once again, too.

    The one thing that keeps me from losing it though, is the thought of my new shrubs being nicely insulated by all the snow.

    Hmmm. I'll wake you when spring comes if I'm out of hybernation before you =:)

    This looks nice Terry!
    I might have to wake up both of you.
    It's mostly fluff, [good insulator] but doesn't amount for much water.
    But I shouldn't complain, looks already better then last year, ....I'm
    shooting for double amount.

    I was digging out last night

    Yep nothing but snow here too. Still coming down

    We have drifts of snow on part of the roof that stick out a foot past the eaves. They hang down sort of like Konrad's tree.

    So, in answer to your question, Yes, Enough Snow Already ! =:)

    The snow pack has really dropped with having received several days of temps up to + 11 C and a couple episodes of moderate rain. Being up in the rolling hills near Spruce Grove, my temps are often that of or warmer than recorded in downtown Edmonton. What had been a deep 3 ft blanket of snow, this has now been reduced to about 2 ft ... thankfully, there won't be so much to melt away come March ... well, who knows what's still ahead!

    Back to the return of cold ... for now.

    We got 8" last week and I can't even see the bumps where I covered my roses in the front yard - this makes me happy. :)

    Here in MB next to the good old Red River we're worried about flooding this spring. I don't think my property would ever flood but it affects the whole community and local economy when it happens.

    Today it was +2 and the snowpack slumped a lot.

    Snow actually packed down enuff so I could go X/C skiing in the pasture. Hope to get out to the Blackfoot one of these days.

    Yes, I think we've had enough snow! I just got a brand new 4 WD Honda CR-V. So driving in the snow is less of a problem. Love the new car. At 116" plus of snow, I could use a little breather.

    These are the totals from a local TV station. I live about 25 miles south of Syracuse. We've gotten more than the 116".
