OMG Snowed in bigtime

softail-joanie — Thu, 05 Mar 2015 18:54:00 GMT

The electric went out last night and just now came back on, internet is finally working. I'm gonna try to get some pics of this, Opened the camper door this morning and snow came into the camper, it was at least 20 inches high from where the door opens from the bottom. My snow shovel broke under the weight. I used a little shovel, i haven't worked this hard in a while. tired, I can't get my car out. Just stuck and freaking out over being stuck. I don't really need to go anywhere right now, just bothers me that i can't. What I wouldn't give right now for a Jeep cj5 4wd lifted 6 inches with studed tires.

Mr Snowman will get a noticeable tan line at his hat and scarf edges. And melanomas forming on his carrot with that practise..

Not just any winter. 2 months of below freezing even in the day. The snow of course wouldn't melt and continued to pile up, until yesterday. It rained washing away the snow off the roads and sidewalks. Today...10 below with a foot of snow, lol.

I took a few photos for the neighbourhood photo challenge but missed it. This one was the best I took, imo.

Or the burst pipe, the spurting water created a partial ice tube....

Last year the bay almost froze completely, this year it did....

Is it Antarctica?......

Amazing photos Jimmy. The only thing that could make that first one better is a skwerl

Thanks! I gave up on photography, but with the extreme weather I took a few.

I'd find a spot for a skwerl, but never figured out how to add things to a pic. Maybe Taz (waves) can put one in there...somewhere. 🙂

do you have squirrels where you are Jimmy? I spose they'd all be tucked up somewhere cosy.

They really are beautiful photos. I would love to be standing there, looking down that road. The contrast of the white sparkly snow on the dark trees limbs must look amazing in the flesh

Millions of squirrels. I like them, some people hate them and think they're pests. They can cause damage if they get up in the roof, but that's never happened anywhere I've lived. I'll make friends with a few this summer and take a few pics.....and wait for it to fit a theme, lol.

I took that pic because it looked so clean and the air too. Fresh!

it's bad, even for here. this much snow, and i'm still stuck. this internet isn't working well so i'll hold off on the pictures for now.
