Looks like I won't be paying any bills til spring!!

 

 

That pic of the mailbox reminds me of mine the other day. I went out to get the mail and noticed someone had snapped off the post and had repaired it by nailing 3 scrap pieces of wood around it. i have no idea who or when it was done but at least they did a temporary fix on it. Lol

Man I hate the cold...

 

Do I win? LOL

 

Enough already...I have enough ..Where is that *&^*$**& groundhog...   looking around my shop this I thought I had this mostly cleaned up yesterday..

this is my truck this morning,the one in my avatar,had to park on the street and shovel the bottom and 2 grooves up the driveway when I came home this morning,I have had enough of winter thank you.there is an 84 citation in the second pic I think,thats where I left it LOL,the antenna gives it away.

First time in my 56 years I had to shovel snow off my Roof. Bought the Last Roof Rake / shovel in Aylmer! I do not like this weather!

we had wind and drifting to start the weekend,then steady snow to end,adding to the high spots and filling the low ones,not to mention there was already too much on the ground to start with,

Hey , did you see Atlanta Georgia ?.....2 1/2 INCHES of snow and there is chaos and pandemonium ......cars stuck , people stranded . Ah the U.S of A ....want to "solve " everyone else's problems ( like a bull in a China shop ) and can't get out of their own way on day to day stuff . Maybe Harper should send Atlanta a coupla 'billion just to show we care ....not .

 i know someone down there. True. They do now know what to do. I have to laugh....5 cm of snow...for us that means wearing our long shorts !

The snow we have today is like what we dealt with as kids. Nothing was closed and everyone went to school/work. Its quite funny.

I read 1200+ accidents !!! Silly

I normally like the snow and being to get out on the sled but frankly I'm getting tired with the 5 days of steady squalls.  Here's a short video of them working on the drifts just north of us.

More snow just about everywere i think. Looks like we got around another 6-7 inches, i just shovelled the paths out yesterday, sure keeping everyone busy shovelling and plowing.
Been a great winter for guys plowing by the job, but the poor guys plowing by the season,will be cursing this.
Going to be a few cottage and hunt camp roofs under a great load strain, heard the other day, people are snomobiling into them and shovelling them off, apparently some had up to 4ft on them.
Road conditions are poor at times, there are 5 major plowing contractors looking after the hiways through to Thunder Bay, (Thanks to Mike Harris's cut backs and privatization), and out of the 5 contractors 4 have been fined , some up to the 6 figure mark! OUCH!

 Wow! No wind where you are? My yard more closely resembles FatchuK's, with nothing in some spots to OMFG in others!!!! I haven't had any snow on the roofs of any of the yard cars all year - sometimes a little at the base of the windshield, but that's about it.

 She's working hard just keeping a path clear so I ca get out there.

I am not going out the shop to-day I need a mental health day ..My water to the shop is frozen underground , I am getting pretty sick of it, I think I will the wife to-day and do house work and some baking ,, a few more pictures of around here enough allready..

some of the drifts around the house are up to the eve troughs...

if you look through the trees you can see I have one of those portable garages to store the lawn mower and some yard stuff I can barley see it it is totaly covered with drifts all around it..

 

my deck is 5 feet off the ground and the snow is above the deck I try to keep it shoveled off as it is off my bedroom and I have 8ft windows in my bed-room and the snow was almost 2 ft up the window and my dog could not see out to keep an eye on the poor little bunnys trying to eat the branches off the lilac trees..he loves to chase those bunnys

Must be age or something bit I am getting stressed and BROKE paying the heat,and ONT LIBERALS HYDRO BILLS.... and as I sit here posting this I can't see my barn from my house office...So I know where I will be when it stops again..Out on my friggin tractor blowing snow ..Again.. aaarrrggg      

 

6" more have fallen over night, up to 12pm, apparently should stop snowing at about 5pm.It's getting to the point, that even the snowblower can't throw the snow over top the snowbanks.

We missed the snowfall you guys got, all we got was a bit of wind that blew the loose stuff around. We must have at least 30 inches on the level, as the deer in the yard ,their bellies are now dragging a bit on the snow.
Getting hard for them now to get around. Mostly they are staying just on the edge of the bush, munching sapling twigs.

Well that confirms it ^^: WINTER SUCKS!!!

Yep, more snow and crazy high winds/ crappy weather here as well. Digging out again.

Calling for ......wait for it.......more snow today into tonight.
