Well...we got our first snowfall of the year! And quite the snowfall it was - probably about 12-15"! It was a real fine, pretty snow that started about 4:00 last night as we were going to church and just continued all night.
However, Jim went out to the land and there was no getting through the plowed snow at the end of the driveway! Definitely snowed out!
The deep snow made us realize that we had procrastinated getting some hearty winter weather gear. Certainly we are used to snow being from Cleveland, but then all I had to do was go out to my nice garage, get in the car, drive to work, get out in a shoveled parking lot and go to work. Jim had boots that he used when he was shoveling or plowing, but as soon as he stepped out of our apartment, he knew the time had come to get higher, waterproof boots! Plus I've been enjoying walking to the post office and store and want to continue doing that.
Since obviously our new landlord doesn't have shoveling at the top of his list, you can see how deep the snow was!
So off we went. We decided to go to the outlet malls at Lake George. We had only driven by once when we were still looking for land with Kyle and Julia. Then it was summer and that whole area is crowded. But look how gorgeous it was!
The mountains, pine trees and snow were really pretty. And we both found good boots so mission accomplished!
When we got home, they had come through the parking lot with a plow - and piled up the snow behind the cars. Good thing I don't have to go out anywhere!
