From the front snow cave

I know I said I wanted snow…

Above – this morning, laying on my stomach, just inside my front door with the camera pointed down the “walk”

Below – after shovelling the roof and the sidewalk

So…the snowblower…it blew some snow and then it coughed, spit and quit…several times…

Big John’s wanted to come today to get it and try again – at no charge – but my road is not plowed and neither is the highway, according to a neighbor, so I told them to wait until driving was better. Those 2 sweet young men who do the pickup/delivery and played with Karl – no sense risking their lives over a snow blower!

And the mechanic at Big John’s listened to my attempt to mimic the noises the blower made and he never laughed. He listened…and asked questions!! I am still a fan of Big John’s.

Karl…Karl has had to move from the front porch, to the walk, to the driveway, to get a spot where he can keep a proper eye on his yard.

Adam is back.

There is a certain benefit to the snow cave thing…

Snowblowing, shoveling, snowshoeing – it is thirsty work.
