The Blizzard of 2010

Ok....Seriously. This isn't funny anymore! AND we're getting 6 more inches on Tuesday. It's official, the news said that Frederick County, MD got hit worse than anyone in the country....how did we get so lucky? Our final counts were between 36 and 46 inches of snow. Jason and I shoveled all day and got nowhere. These are some super attractive pictures. Jason and I could hardly open our eyes in any of them because we had a white out and 35 MPH winds blowing buckets of snow in our face. However, the pictures don't quite do it justice. Enjoy our madness! Hopefully in the coming posts we will have something to show for ourselves other than snow. Sorry the blog has been a bit repetitive.This is what Jason and I woke up to on Saturday morning. This was just the beginning of it. These are pictures of our doors from the inside. I think we were at about 18 inches at this point. This picture above is my car and what I like to call the drift of Grinch Mountain that was in front of our house. It only took us 2 hours to find my car. Jason measuring in the blizzard. We were at 22 inches.
Me trudging through the wilderness.
Before anything was shoveled. This is me attempting to get to our front door before anything was shoveled. The snow was up to my waist.
Taking care of some of the damage. When it was all finished we has a consistent 3 feet of snow everywhere with 5 foot banks and drifts in places.
So I took a nice fall while I was trying to clear off our trees which were about to all break off and fall down. This was a very dense heavy snow, which makes it difficult or impossible to get up. My wonderful husband decides that time would be better spend taking pictures of me laid out buried in the snow rather than helping me up. Ok, so was all that really necessary....I think not! Warm weather is looking better and better.
