I know you people on the east coast have had some serious snow this winter. Until last night, we'd mostly avoided it in Wisconsin. But boy did we ever get hit now. Its actually very pretty if it weren't for all the work you have to do clearing it. Lots more to do. I'm just taking a break. Pics coming later . . .

Yeah Bob...I hear you!....I'm like Fred,...I love winter, but I'm eyeballin' my workshop roofs AGAIN! Big area + slow pitch = a LOT of weight....plus a huge area to shovel....They're tin roofs, but the only theing easily shedded is me, when I get down to the bottom layer of ice! [:D][:mad:] Fortunatly it's not too far to the ground. Take care shoveling,and if it's like ours it's really heavy and wet.

Sorry to hear of your plight. Like you said, we on the East coast have had some serious snow of late. Right now we're at 50 plus and it looks like we may be near 60 today. Looks like we dodged the bullet this time.

I sympathize with you guys up there! This time I was lucky, just rainy, foggy, and temps in the 40's today, but re-freeze at night.. and the snow we got on Dec 26 is STILL covering the ground.. still gotta walk like a penguin.. [;)]

We went out and cleared the 4 inches we got on Monday night. Now we have to go and do it all over again. So far the only thing I have shoveled is the front door...all the doors were blocked.

Bubba loves the snow but the drifts proved hard going for him.

Bubba loves it. He likes to have toys thrown in the deep snow so he can dig for it.
The sun has come out now and it is beautiful, cold but beautiful. I think it is supposed to be -8 tonight.
I have enjoyed my first Wisconsin winter so far...but then I realized we are really only about 1/2 way through the winter. We really need to get that snow blower fixed!

It is very bad here 5 roofs have fallen in as of last night. I need to listen to today's news. No one can move the snow, as it's so heavy and they are giving out tickets if your side walk isn't cleared. There is nowhere too put it. I know someone who has gotten 75 tickets so far this winter. They come in the mail. WHO PASSED THIS LAW?
