A Deep Snow

Above left is how our driveway looked this morning as I stood in the garage, contemplating the trip to get the newspaper. We got about a foot of snow overnight. Above right is the path I shoveled clear so I could get the paper.


Here's the view looking back at the house from the street, and the box where our paper is left. Now we could have breakfast!


Once I'd had breakfast, I finished clearing the driveway, shown here. That's pretty much how the driveway looked yesterday too, before the snow.


Here's the pathway from our front door, before and after shoveling. I can feel all my muscles now! And I feel old.


Dead flowers capped with snow. The snow looks like flower buds.


My labors complete, I can now contemplate our front yard from the comfort of our living room.


Picnic anyone?


A small windmill in the backyard.


My hat, after I'd knocked most of the snow off of it. The sad thing is, it was snowing as I was shoveling, and tomorrow morning I'll need to do it all over again. I feel like Sisyphus.
