Year 2 - Day 27 - January 27

This morning we shoveled the driveway at 6am.  (We were trying to get him out so he could go to work - but then his boss told him to stay home!  At least we got a clean driveway out of the deal, and now we have a whole day to do nothing.)  We finished just before 8 - look how clean it is!  The poor phone was having issues with being in the super cold air - that's the only reason I can think of for the misty look of the picture.

Then we came back inside and looked at the deck:

The snow blew so much all night that it stuck between the railings and to every tiny branch of every tree!

Day 350 - December 16

We had a little more than an inch of snow today.  It was the worst right around dismissal time, so the kids got home really late.  I shoveled the driveway just so that it didn't turn into a chunk of ice over night.  The huge amount of cracks in the driveway made shoveling difficult.  Since there's just an inch out there, I was just going to push the snow out onto the grass.  But the cracks make the driveway uneven so every 18 inches I was hitting a bump and couldn't continue to scrape.  The driveway is on our list of "fix this when you have some extra money laying around..."  It'll probably be on that list for awhile. :)  Now we just cross our fingers for a delay tomorrow!!!!! :)
