Yes, we had a little snow today. At 8:00 in the evening, it’s at about 14″ and it’s still coming down. I suspect it’ll be a record.
My snowthrower bit into more than it could chew last winter. I’ve been working on it; I disasembled it to try and free it up. The manufacturer had gone bankrupt. Some parts were available through Freddie’s Bicycle Shop in Zelionople but with strange part numbers so I demurred. I put it back together and attacked the snow…..for a distance of four feet. The gearbox had ground up what was left of the gears from last winter.
So, God Bless Bobby who had just acquired a brand new snow thrower from Home Depot and drove over here with it in his truck. He and Sigrid unloaded it and he did a number on my driveway.
Before that I was out on a walk at about 4:30. Here’s the entryway to the walk to my house.
At 9:15 PM it’s still coming down pretty good.
Outside of that short walk I stayed in and decorated my tree. Why wouldn’t I stay inside? Merry Christmas, everyone!
THE NEXT DAY
Now we begin digging out. I guess UPS won’t be coming to the back door.
The mail box is another indicator.
But, Bobby came back again and recleared the driveway.

Hi Ralph,
I really like all these snow photo’s. The one with the lampost is my favorite. Stay warm today if you venture out again. 🙂
