whoo-who!!!

we finally got our first measurable snowfall yesterday. it wasn't that much, only 4", but it is a start. we are supposed to be getting 3 more storm systems this week. if it doesn't get warmer and we get a good dumping, hopefully there will be about a foot of snow on the ground. if we get that much down here, then there has to be lots of freshies up in the mountains.

i was finally able to get out our new snowblower last night as well. i took care of our driveway and helped our across-the-street neighbor too. this morning i got up around 6 to see if we had gotten anymore snow, and we did, so i got up to snowblow again. the plow came by and i got a nice little gift from him. the snowberm wasn't that big, but our next door neighbor got hit hard with one. so, after i took care of my driveway (again), i went and helped him with his.

i am hoping to go riding soon this season. i was supposed to go up this saturday, but something has come up, that i had totally forgotten about, so hopefully, next saturday. . .
