NEW HOUSE-SUMMER "OH COOL WE HAVE A 7 CAR DRIVEWAY!" WINTER- "OH CRAP WE HAVE A 7 CAR DRIVE!"

Winter finally showed up with a vengence! Up till now, we have had a mild fall/winter season. It's rare that we don't have snow by Dec...as a matter of fact, it is even more rare to still have very sunny warmish days in Nov even. Yesterday was our day out, and full of sunshine and crisp fall air. No snow in sight...shoe weather. I am so glad we got so much shopping for xmas done, because today...actually only from this morning...we have been got this...

First snow winter o9 (6
Sure makes quick work of a 7 car driveway full of snow!
Snow much?
Needless to say it was all or nothing this year, lol..no gradual inching into winter...no we got the full forse gails of blizzard, aprox 1 foot of snow in one day..ooouufff...Where are my thick boot socks!?
The good news is we paid for the snow removal for the driveway...GREAT IDEA! and worth every penny!

WOW! Pretty to look at. Not so much to deal with. We have had mild weather up to now as well. Snow is forecasted for the weekend. Not that much I hope.
