Snow Days

We are on our second Snow Day here. It's really pretty, but now I'm getting stir crazy and want to go to the store. My grocery list is short - but hey - any excuse to go play in the snow is a good one!

I sent Caleb out to shovel the driveway this morning. Then I felt bad and so I went out and helped too. We did a pretty good job between the two of us. The driveway itself is wide enough for two cars to park side by side. We managed to get one and a half lanes cleared. I have a feeling I will be sore later, but it felt good to work up a sweat and do some physical labor.

In the meantime, here is a view out my front door this morning:



And here's my cat - discovering the Triops:



He is completely fascinated with them and meows to them constantly. I have to wonder how many times he will paw at the container - after about 15 times you would think he would figure out that he can't get to them. But he keeps trying. And trying. And trying.
