Snow Day

Today it snowed and snowed and snowed. We pretty much hibernated all day. These pictures were taken at 4pm, and it's supposed to snow well into the evening. I had fun measuring the amount of snow. The news reported at 6pm that our area had 18 inches!
This first picture is of the street. This is the picture I took a few weeks ago of our first snow.
Notice the curved wall and round planter.
This was today (different angle).


I was too much of a wimp to trudge out to the middle of the courtyard to measure. This was near an overhang... so you can imagine how deep it would have been if I measured in the middle.
