The Big SNOW

Did I mention I married a man that used to live in Traverse City? Luckily for me when he moved down here he brought his snow blower. Cedar Springs is the long underwear capital of the world and we normally have a snowy winter here, on the edge of the lake effect coming off of Lake Michigan, but this is a lot of snow even for us. These pictures are across two snow storms- we have gotten two more since. So far this season we are at a total of sixty- yes that is a six with a zero inches. Fifty of those inches fell between the first of December and Christmas day. How far away is spring?

There ARE vehicles under there!


After the next snow- Caelun and I off to deliver goodies to the neighbors-

There are cookies and warm bread in the bag.


You can see in the background- the Taurus is buried again.


Another neighbor's fence and the side walk that has been snow blowed.


Caelun thinks wow that is a lot of snow!


This is the walk way up to our house


Time to come in and warm up- bottles of warm milk for everyone!

Yikes -- that's a lot of snow and winter has just started! Last winter we got over 100 inches which made it one of the top snowiest winters ever. We got over 2 feet right around Christmas so we are on tap for another snowy one, but temps will be milder for the next few days to melt a lot of it. Yes, spring seems a long way off.

Can you believ it was inthe 50's today?! We had thunder and lightening. It is melting like crazy- flooding in some areas.
