It's Snowing!

Well, the snow has started, and we are enjoying it....... but let's see how we feel in a few weeks. Joseph went skiing down the sidewalk, and Stuart has built a snow fort with a friend, and been sledding down a great hill at the friends house. Here are a few pictures. To give you some perspective, the shovel is 18", and all you can see it about the top 3 inches. The snow drifts against the front of the house, so this morning the steps were completely buried.

anyway, I think we'll be buying a snow blower as soon as we can afford one. I'm going to go sew.

Outside

here is the front of the house. It faces southwest.
the big window is the stairway inside, and the other 2 are the library, upstairs, and the familyroom downstairs

here is the porch I've been talking about. It's about 4-5 feet deep and 15 feet long. totally coveredthis one is taken from the back corner of the property. it is 170 feet from where the grass is finished. You can kinda see it in the side picture. The windows, starting in the top left, and going clockwise - above the tub in Mbath, bay windows in MBEd Library, the the sliding glass doors, bay window in dining and kitchen. Under the kitchen window, you can barely see a black railing. That is the basements seperate entrance, down a 1/2 flight of stairs. the truck is parked in the RV parking on the left side of the image. There is a side door into the garage from the RV parking area

this is looking down the street to the south. It's a nice clean neighborhood
