How's the snow?

Snow blowers are great, but if the snow is heavy enough it clogs it quickly. Still, better than back breaking shoveling, but the best snow is the very dry and fluffy snow when temp is near zero. Also storage space (and keeping stale gas out) can be a PITA. But again... better than breaking your back during a blizzard. Good workout though!

I don’t know how legal this is for you folks, but up here when our culdesac got hit hard and heavy (& the city wasn’t doing anything for us), all us neighbors pitched in and hired our own guy with a snow plow to do the street. We especially needed to clean up the exits from our driveways. Cash worked.

@jodi here is my view right now. I actually just went out about a half hour ago and installed that green bird feeder (really hard to see in the picture, it's left of the bluebird birdhouse which is used by every bird except blue birds... mostly black capped chickadees and woodpeckers later in the spring).

A little blurry but this fellow showed up today. Right on cue... the black capped chickadee. Wonder if he's the same as last year?

Caught these 2 lovebirds show up...classic boy chasing girl. First cardinals of the season, I'd like to think the new birdfeeder helped encourage them to come out.
(Side note, squirrels still learned how to jump from the bird house to the feeder where I put it yesterday, so I had to go out today and place it higher. I may or may not have completely fallen off the step stool into the snow on my back after reaching up and barely placing it on the highest branch I could reach)

Just when I thought Rhode Island couldn't get any whiter......
Dude, they're all Portuguese. You're way whiter than that.
