Hermie is stuck in the workshop...can't get him out,! Snow too deep, and wet.
Snowblower auger belt burned up, after 7 hrs. of wet heavy snow!!
My arms are so tired and sore....too many hrs of shoveling snow with a scoop shovel.!!
ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!!!!

That is just plain too much bloody snow. Don't over do it with the snow shovel! I like snow but not that much! |

We haven't had that much snow around here for a long time. The worst winter snow we had was over 100 inches. I was out digging snow just about everyday before I could go to work. Then again when I got home, because of drifting from the wind blowing all day. |

UPDATE;
Got a 'halfway' decent sleep last night. Got up this A.M., & got Leslie situated with tea and brunch....then went out and got our car and truck loose from the snow (with the scoop shovel of course)...then made a trip to the store for food to eat this week.
we ate lunch & I laid down for a 'Long winters Nap'.
Talk about tired....I did not get up for three hrs!!!!
STILL ALIVE AND MOVING!!!!!
Gary & Leslie
See ya!!!!! |

GB,
Takes me back to Kirkland Lake in Northern Ontario where I was born.
It was routinely around 50 below at Christmas time and this much snow all the time. We used to make houses with rooms inside the tall snow banks that the plows made and for cheap thrills we used to jump off the hockey arena roof into the deep snow.
