The Big Dig

There's got to be a morning after 

If we can hold on through the night 

We have a chance to find the sunshine 

Let's keep on looking for the light 

"The Morning After", theme from The Poseidon Adventure (1972)

Because there was so much blowing and drifting of snow, it was hard to get an exact measure of how much snow dropped. I measured 16 inches of snow. I think the official snow total from the weather watcher in town was 18 inches. Some areas along the North Shore, Boston, South Shore, and Cape Cod saw 2 feet or more of snow.

The weather dudes were saying this was a light, fluffy snow, but a pound of feathers still weighs a pound.

Snowdrift up the sun room slider door. Somebody needs to shovel a path to the bird feeder. That may have to wait until the temperature gets above freezing. The slider and the sun room windows were frozen shut.

The greenhouse survived.

The Frozen Tundra

The Angel who plowed the driveway on Saturday could not finish the plowing because he was in the hospital with appendicitis. 😱All the snow plow drivers were busy. And then? And then? Along came D, Himself's brother and his trusty snowblower. The kitties loved watching D 

The driveway all cleared.

Clearing the snow from Moose

By the twilight's last gleaming, our mailbox still stands!

Crossing the Alps without elephants for a cup of tea and some Ibuprofen.
