Enough is Enough

So I'm just about fed up with all this snow! Today was the 11th storm of the year and last night's storm was our first blizzard. See those posts? Fastened to them is a fence that is exactly 4 feet tall. Hard to believe!

This is the greenhouse that I took a picture of a few posts back. It's not even recognizable right now!

If you look close you can see why the power goes off all the time. Look at the second wire...see how the branches are weighing it down? Luckily this is only the phone wire, but during ice storms the main power lines take a real beating.

This is my Dad plowing us out...again. The snowbank in front of the house is over the height of the roof. We can't even get to the front door that way any more. AND guess what? It's snowing again! Sigh.....

After the Storm

The storm has ended and look who came out for some breakfast at my parents place! There were at least two more deer on each side of the picture.

Right now Mom likes them, but when spring comes and all her roses, hedges and what not's are chewed, she my think differently! For now we consider them Nature's Gift. Photos by Mom!

More Snow....sigh....

As I'm reading other people blogs about snowdrops and Spring starting to arrive, I look out the window and sigh. As I write this we are into the first few hours of another winter storm. See the above picture? That's the same greenhouse that I blogged about in the last entry. Sigh....

Stupid Meteorologists!!

Tell me something...does this look like 5 - 10 cms (2-4 inches) of snow to you? That is how much the Meteorologists were calling for yesterday. Instead, we go well over a foot of snow (30 cms)!

We hardly got shoveled out from the last storm and now have another foot to shovel!

Any guess to what that bump is? Believe it or not, that's my bird bath under all that snow!

This is the piece on the back deck that juts out from the house. Look at all the snow! I hope the deck can stand all that weight!

But, alas, it sure is pretty!
