It’s nothing compared to Oswego, NY, but for these Southerners (Southern California, Atlanta) WINTER has enveloped us in Northeast Ohio! We’ve had snow on the ground now for over a month, and the current storm is dumping 16″ – 24″ of new snow on us. We’re new enough to it, though, that it’s still a fun adventure and we’re having a great time with the snow! Here are a few shots from this morning (and yes, it’s still snowing and will snow most of the day!):
Our back door this morning — and there’s an 8″ step down to get on the deck!

Yep, that’s 23″ of snow!

Opened the garage door — had an 8″ wall of snow that had been up against the door, then the 2.5-foot accumulation around the car. Don’t think volvo is going anywhere today!

Katie up to her knees… and she’s standing on packed snow, not the driveway!

Katie – Northeast Ohio Snow Bunny!

No school today — another “snow day” — and Katie’s excited about a day off from school! We’ll probably play in the snow this afternoon, maybe even a little sledding!
Any of you Californians or Atlantans are certainly welcome to come join us!

Great picture of Katie.
Looks like a good time to throw a log on the fire and just watch the snow come down!

We’re taking the middle school youth on a snowtubing trip this weekend. Maybe we should bring them to OH instead of NC

Yep. You do have more space. But, will you allow a spitting for distance contest for the boys off of your back porch?

No problem on the spitting contest, Erik. The tough part would be getting to the back porch! Have fun tubing tomorrow!
