Round Six!

I think by now we are all a bit weary of Winter.  It is said "that a picture paints a thousand words". In this case the 'picture' speaks 19 - 36" of  snow.

Early morning....how pretty!


 Reality is a shocker!  The yardstick on the car measures 11" of NEW snow. The first 5" were swept away!
 Eddie making the initial run. 
 Our very helpful neighbor, Mike Hogan came to help with his super-duper-tricked-out MEGA snowblower.  We are very grateful for his help.
 Our reliable, dependable "Honda" machine was working very hard too.
 Mike and The Machine.  (Isn't there a book by that title?)
 Nothing disturbed the Christmas decoration on the grill of the TB.  Not the snow, NUMEROUS cleanings with my corn broom, not even the Crown Brush-less Car Wash in town.
 Light at the end???

 Looks are deceiving, the opening in the piles of snow is quite narrow.  I had to be careful not to 'graze' the sides of the tunnel lest it collapsed!

I final tribute to my favorite snowman.  Definitely a case of "man against machine".  Machine - "1"; Man "0"
