Storm Fern - Too Much Snow

R. Linda:

You will be delighted to know we have snow totals over 24". Kiddos shovelled, and I car ploughed, so we are good. However, we had one situation that warrants I share with you. After all was said and done, we were missing O'Hare's car. Then we were missing O'Hare, until I saw this:

O'Hare's legs in the air

Uh-oh. I had to shovel me way over to get him out, and it took a good amount of shovelling, I can tell you that much, but I upended him and asked him what on God's little white acre he was doing. He told me he was looking for his car. And it was no wonder, his car was over near the garage, buried in the snow from Storm Fern. See here:

 

If it weren't for O'Hare's strange behaviour, I'd not have seen it

Well, we found it, and we shovelled, and we shovelled, and we shovelled, to find the back tyre had gone flat. How to add insult to injury, eh?

Well, that was yesterday, late in the day. Today I'd like to say the sun is shining, the air is crisp, and all is done with the snow. But no, it be overcast, and there are "snow people" floating about in that air, still gracing the already white landscape with more of the white stuff. 

I know what you're going to say: this is Greenland getting even with us. But I had nothing to do with THAT. Anyway, back to more shovelling.
