Digging Out


Once again they made a huge deal out of the weather and we didn't quite get what was predicted, maybe about 10 inches. Just up the road in Shakopee, they got over twice that. We seemed to be just on the line where the rain met the snow, so Friday it just rained. The wind and snow started early Saturday morning and continued until evening, so we stayed put after the Reindeer run. The temperature went from 30 to 0 over the course of the storm, but the bright sun on the south side of our house and the protection from the wind we have here made shoveling out a fun time.


Klara is definitely carrying here weight (literally and figuratively) around here!


It reminds me of when I was little, playing arctic explorer walking home from Riverside Elementary in Moorhead on top of the boulevard drifts left by the snow plow.
