To This

My Alberta Spruce topped with snow. Thirteen inches of snow fell on Vineland last night and today. There were three phases of storms that came through. We had the highest accumulation in the Tri-State Area. (PA, NJ, DE) Danny had a difficult time getting around. The snow was deeper than his short little legs, in fact in some places it was over his head. I should have had my camera with me. I was delighted to find that my neighbor, Alex had shoveled my front walk. I stared at it as if it had happened by magic. His walk was shoveled so I guess he just kept on going. It was a big help. I have a lot of area to shovel. Two driveways. One at the rear entrance to my house and the other in front of my garage. Also the walk up to my front entrance where the Alberta Spruce is.

While I was walking Danny, a van drove up just as a golden retriever got away from it's owner and came running up to check out Danny. The owner had trouble catching "Lucas" as he didn't even have a collar on. I had to scoop up Danny in my arms and kept my back to Lucas because I never know how dogs will react to each other. The van sat there watching this then followed the girl around the corner and wanted to film her shoveling snow. It was the NBC news covering the storm. I was kind of miffed as Lucas was running around without a leash and no attempt made to control him. Anyway, the van came back later to film the kids across the street and I saw my house on the evening news.

Hi Karol,

Your spruce looks like and ice cream cone. Also
It looks like Michigan has been every since Dec.
Welcome to winter wonder land.

We have been down to zero the last couple of mornings but the weather man keeps saying that
it will be up to 50 by Friday. Sure hope he is
right. We'e had enough winter.

Our neighbors said the they hope to start making
maple syrup tomorrow. It will be late this year.
We always enjoy their syrup.

Hopefully you won't have to shovel much more snow.
Dad says he has had enough snow shoveling this year.

Enjoy and make a snow man. Have fun.
