It's snowing! :)

Yup, the predicted storm did arrive, although about six hours late. I took the day off (use it or lose it, so I took the last vacation day I had) and I'm glad I did, as twenty minutes after it started, Ithought, I'll run an errand. Went down the road, turned around, came back. Roads were slick and the Fed Ex truck just missed the stone wall!

So, here are some photos from today's snow!




A Christmas tree a few roads down. I couldn't get a decent sharp photo without flash (sure not dragging a tripod around in the snow), so went for the artistic squiggle look ;)




A snowy road, plowed but already full of snow again.




A snowy nebula! No, but it looks cool, doesn't it? I just breathed out and caught it as it froze up :)

Eeeuuuu, too much snow, etc. for me! Yeah, they LOVE to just plow all the snow from the road in front of the driveway, which is why I was out at 9pm last night shoveling the bottom of the driveway. Not like SGA was on to watch anyway ;)

I'm not looking forward to the next storm.

Yes, it is faaaaar too much snow especially when you aren't used to it.

Tried to get out today, and that just did *NOT* happen couldn't even get the cars out of the lot.

And now the new round of snow came in and with it brought wind so we will see what happens.

I hadn't bought snow tires as I hadn't expected to still own this car as I'd planned on replacing it -then the market meltdown and the shakiness of the job - so will drive the old car on all season tires, which really, don't do the job in snow. darn.

*shrugs* Well we just have tires on the car(not sure what kind, lol), as we don't normally even get Snow snow, and when it does snow its just a little bit and melts quickly.

Though this weather has brought on a whole new level of fun now, in that one of the goats nearly died of hypothermia last night and I had to save her. So now I have a 50lb goat running around my kitchen *g*.

That goat sounds about the size of my fat dog! ;)

She makes for a very interesting dog. I grabbed some snaps of her wandering around the house(and some video too) and uploaded them to my blog: http://mackenziesmomma06.blogspot.com/2008/12/you-might-be-country-girl-if.html
