More snow! More fun! More shoveling!
Another 50+cm this morning, adding to our already healthy snowpack. Last year's low snow cover and high bush/tree factor are now gone from the collective consciousness.
I realized at the end of the day yesterday that I spaced out on the report - sorry about that! The result of throwing the seven belts that drive the auger of my snowthrower, then working with my trusty and reliable repairman so I kind of know what's going on under that fire engine red hood... It's back in action today, and so was I out running it to catch up on the snow that was devouring my house (so we're probably the last report today, but a sincere one).
