Two Days of Snow On The Way

snow in walkway — And 2 Feet Coming!

Well, I have kept the path cleared to my front door this winter and it hasn’t been easy. The plow guy pushes all the driveway stuff right up into the front of the house which means I have to shovel through that. Then the roof emptied it’s load onto the front steps and that was a heavy bunch of stuff to shovel. Now up to 2 feet of snow is expected over the next 2 days and I’m wondering how high I can pile the stuff and what will happen when the next batch falls off the roof?
Winter has come all at once to New Hampshire.

Blue Snow

When one and a half feet of snow fell last week, I kept seeing this blue tint in the mounds.

I enhanced this photo a bit in picasa to bring out the blue better so it actually wasn’t quite this bright.

I am not a scientific type person, so I’ve added a link underneath the photo to explain why snow (and ice) sometimes looks blue. I just thought it was unusual and pretty.
