The Morning After

Remember the bent pine photo I posted yesterday?  Weight of the snow broke it or maybe pulled it out by the root as it is laying on the ground now.

A few neighbors (God bless them) came to snow blow my driveway, came with shovels to clean off  my front steps and walkway, and to salt the steps.

View from the garage parking pad out toward the meadow.

Another Lake Birch clump bent but not as badly as the one near the inactive pond in yesterday's photo.  Many limbs will need to be cleaned up once this snow disappears.

I cannot open my back porch door so the photo is taken thru the screen and the bent clump birch tree limbs this morning;  hope they bounce back.

I read that Seaford did receive over 12" of snow but I never went out to put a ruler in the collection on the deck rail.

Here's what the thermostat read this morning.  I always turn my thermostat down when I go to bed as I'm toasty under the covers.  Besides, if you think about having 62 degrees outside that would be quite nice, right?  So why not inside?  But look at the 8* reading outside now that's down right frigid!

Looks like it will be another day of hooking and binding the Bird Dog rug.  Tomorrow you can be sure I'll get out of the house and go to the grocery store to get ready for the next round of snow coming on Thursday.  Predictions of 2" - 4" expected.  You northern exposure states can take this stuff back....please!  OMG, do any of you remember that TV series?  It was hilarious and wonder if it is available on TV anywhere?
