More snow?! This time it was 5.75 inches.
While most of the area took that Friday off from work, Jeff had a
few deadlines waiting for him. Luckily the roads were clear
and the commute was much better than average.
Ryan is enjoying swim lessons again. He really
wants to venture in the deep end where he sees other kids playing,
but doesn't know how to swim yet. Ryan's class is concentrating
on getting their face wet, blowing bubbles under water, kicking, jumping
into the water, and floating on their backs.
Sunday, February 16th
We received 12" of snow within 13 hours. We
are expecting another 24 hours of continued snow fall. Ryan had
a double ear infection, so Betsi took him to the emergency room last night
at 1:00am. The snow hadn't started yet. By the time they left
around 3:00am, a few inches of snow had fallen covering everything.
Betsi could tell she was driving on the road instead of the median because
the snow was smoother. Scary. By the next morning, you never
would have known about his ear infection.
It snowed a few inches by the time
I finished shoveling the driveway.
Mountain of snow
Snow half way up the tires
on our neighbor's van.
Monday, February 17th
The snow covered part of the flag
and the stairs.
A subtle way of saying
we don't want our bills.
Snow covering the wheels and hood.
The snow is taller than the deck.
It's almost to the top of the bushes.
It covered the deck chairs.
The snow and sleet stopped on the 17th for these photos. It later snowed another inch or so to make it a total of 24". If it didn't sleet, we could have had as much as 30". The storm rated as the 5th largest snowfall the area has ever seen. We didn't go back to work until the 19th.
