Winter Storm Leon


This morning we woke up to 6" of snow. Under all that snow was about 1/2" of ice. Kimberly and Nicole got more snow than we did as they didn't get the sleet before the snow started. Some people were reporting up to 10" of snow. 

Of course, when we get this much snow it shuts everything down. Schools, federal and city offices are closed as well as some businesses including my work. Jeff's work was on a two hour delay so he didn't have to be there till 8:00. It took him an hour to get to work when it normally takes about 20 minutes. He doesn't get off work though till 8:00 tonight, just in time for the roads to freeze back up.

snow on the front porch all the way up to the door

I like the snow covered trees



opening the back door

the grandkids picnic table is almost buried

this is how we plow roads in the country

Our cars are buried. Jeff started cleaning the van off in case I had to go to work
but he gave up and told me to stay home. Luckily, work was closed today.
