And this:
This is the most fun we've had in the snow in years! No ice, no heavy slushy wintry mix, just lovely fluffy good-sledding snow!
Aaron and Arden showed up with their tubes just as the last shovel full of snow was flung off the driveway. Good timing guys! We were ready to play.
Off we all went on the ATVs to find a long, fast hill in the field.
Here's the Schuylkill from the edge of the field behind the house.
We fared pretty well, considering they got 23 inches in Philadelphia--just 30 miles from us.
This is what we found when we arrived this morning. Just a little bit of snow on the top plate, and 4 1/2 inches on the tarp.
A little shoveling, a little blowing and it was all good. The tarp is in the barn, the deck is dry, the driveway is clear. As we were leaving, the wind was whipping up some good drifts. We'll go back bright and early to re-shovel and salt as necessary so the builders can get in and park and get right down to business.
And at the end of a hard-working, hard-playing day, we went to Sutton's for a rack of ribs and some good beer. We're exhausted. Good night!
