Chop Wood...Another Storm!

Sunday, Jan 26th...we heard another snow storm was on it's way so we laid in a good supply of kindling and wood. The guy still has it...look at him go! We woke up on Monday to beautiful sunshine and about 4 in of new snow. Hmmm, what do you do if have no snow boots, the doggies need their walk and shortie only has a 2 inch clearance from her belly to the ground? We jumped in the car and drove our walking route over about 3 times to leave us a nice track to walk in!
It all started out great until about half way through when the wind kicked up and the snow began falling...this is end of our walk.
Time to get inside and relax by the fire.
This morning...another 6 inches on top of the 2+ feet. I sat at the table and watched the squirrels and the birds feeding like crazy...they must have heard another 8 inches is on the way! This guy was determined to get into this suet basket.
A couple of the regular birds that feed here...need to look them up and see who they are!
Richard had thrown squirrel feed out last night. This guy finally gave up on the basket and started digging in the snow...he had to go a ways down but Eureka!
Life is Good again. As you can see...we haven't traveled out much since being here. Lots of snow to contend with and it's forecast for the worse weather this afternoon. Good news though, I hear the snow plow!
