Where's Waldo, er, I mean Bambi...

There are two deer in this pic:


Kudos if you spotted them! If not:

We ended up getting about 7-8 inches of snow, with drifts deeper than that. It was snowing about two inches an hour during the height of the storm. Hubby came home after a half-day at work, before the roads got really bad, and he was out every thirty minutes with the leaf blower, keeping Boom's pee path clear.



It's a very "blowable" snow, so he's outside right now using the big snowblower to clear the driveway (or rather, making adjustments to get the snowblower to run, as is always the case, seems like). In a rare event, there was no ice or sleet first, so if the snow is off, there won't be a slick layer underneath, just bare gravel.

I had to go out several times with Boom or to blow his path clear before hubby came home, and my rosacea, despite being covered by a fuzzy, soft balaclava, is not happy. Oh well. It'll improve with warmer weather. By Sunday it will be in the 40Fs and by Monday, near 60F. That's the only nice thing about late winter here: the cold snaps are fierce but usually don't last weeks.

A couple more photos:

I will not be dining al fresco this morning:


Everyone stay warm today!

Happy Wednesday, all.
