The Aftermath

I wish I would have taken pictures yesterday morning before my Dad came over with the tractor and dug us out of our driveway. There was so much snow piled in front of our gate there was NO way I would have ever been able to dig us out. On Saturday I had to dig so that we could at least open the gate to get the tractor in behind the Tahoe and that was hard. Early Saturday morning Logan and I walked to my parents house and I helped dig out the side walks. HOLY COW… There was so much snow, and I haven’t been this sore in a very long time. I forgot what it felt like to use certain muscles. After digger we figured we got between 2-3 feet of snow. MORE than anyone has seen up here in a very long time.

The snow is great… for the first 24 hours and then….. It becomes a huge hassle that you are surrounded by and cannot run from. I normally hate being in the car, and I hate long rides, but yesterday we had to drive to Hollywood to pick up some stuff and I could not have been more thrilled just to be out of the house. While we were in Hollywood we also stopped to see my friend Diana, and I REALLY enjoyed my time with here. We left her house and drove down Hollywood Blvd. because I had never seen it.. O MAN.. It is amazing! We are for sure going back to walk around and people watch.

Anyway.. Back to the snow.. Here are pictures from Saturday Morning. The day after our “Big Storm”.

That is a ton of snow. I heard that the mountains are closed because of so much snow and that they are running out of supplies. Thats just crazy. Your pictures are breathtaking. I hope the snow melts quickly for you.
