Well it's still snowing and we have a blizzard watch tonight. It's been crazy. We woke up to at least 6 new inches and the drifts were well over a foot in the driveway not just near buildings. It has been fun to have and a bit wild. Since were not used to this stuff. Now if the winds would just settle down a bit the kids could go out and enjoy it. If they don't get lost in it. Tommy told Chris this morning when he looked outside that if it gets any deeper he and Lizzy could play "tunnel tag". I said they probably could do that in the yard right now. It's at least 3 feet deep in our yard next to the house and the drifts are even deeper. One of the problems were having is where to have the snow that is plowed placed. We are filling up the place rather quickly. And much to our sadness there will be NO SNOW DAYS here they do not have any extra days to give away.
Well the picture of our fuel tank got cleared off today when the fuel man showed up. In the one picture you can see where I opened up the back door out into the yard. The photo with the trailer in it where the markers are those are for a fire hydrant and power box. The hydrant is just about completely covered. Anyways, that's what's been going on here and more to come tonight.

Really interesting snow sculptures crafted by the winds, eh? Glad the oil man came so you can stay warm and cozy. Tunnel tag? We could lose someone.
Hugs to you all.
Yeah the winds sure do neat things with the snow. Maybe we can make Tunnel tag a new winter olympic sport.
thanks for dropping by. hugs to you two too.
Well, the kids finally got their snow! Hopefully yours will take longer to melt than ours has, so the kids will have lots of time to play in it once the wind mellows. Snow may be hard to shoot, but you got some great pictures in there, Wendy!
Just saying hi, it's been awhile since I've commented. How's the weather? Still snowy? Anything new happening in Dutch Harbor? All continues along pretty predictably here for now. January seems to be a pretty predictable month, with no holidays or particular events going on! We'll see how things pick up in the spring. :)
Hi Becky and Bensons,
It's still a bit snowy here. Alot has melted so what is left is really dense and hard. We just got a few more inches today and a few more may be on the way this week. It's all new for us so we shall see what happens. It has been fun for the kids they get to actually enjoy it. I will work on some new pics on here soon. Nothing to exciting going on except for I'm going back to Tommy's class on Friday's for art and social studies. But I do have more photos of Christmas time that I need to get up on here. Thanks for stopping by.
