Sunday, January 11th, 2015

Well the last week has been wintery to say the least!  We have had snow squalls all week.  Lots of road closures and I even missed 2 days of work because of them!  So we went from having no snow to finally having some good old winter weather.  I was beginning to think that it was never going to come.  Well lets get at 'er and take a look at the past week.


Blowing snow - looking from the front of the house to the road.


Looking back at the barn.


Well the snow plow took care of our mailbox so I went out and got another one.  Addie made a "Mail Truck" outta the box.  Her and Graydon have fun with it running around the house.  She expects to receive mail in it every day! LOL


Side view of the mail truck - notice the mail slot at the back on the top.


Leanne's pot roast we did on the wood stove on Wednesday when we were all home due to road closures.


Looking out after the wind stopped howling.


View down the driveway.


The wind was blowing so hard that it blew snow all over in the hay loft.  Here's a better look at it - Video


Graydon got a hair cut like daddy's


Me blowing the driveway out with the blower.  Am I ever glad I got that with the drifts we get.  Don't think the Holaris and the Plow would quite cut it.


 Another pic of the blowing snow.  I put reflective markers along the driveway so I can see were to blow.


The old blower looks like it's smoking.

Leanne and the Kiddo's tobogganing down the gang way


 Molly and Shirley soaking up some sun.  Here's a couple short video's of them I put together - Video


The Rink.  Used the Tractor and Blower to clear the snow off it then re-flooded it.  Starting to take shape. Here's a look while I'm flooding it - Video


Molly and Shirley relaxing by the barn.
Well I guess that gets us up to speed.  Ciao for now.
