Aftermath

Winter arrived with a vengeance today, with 15 cms of snow, blowing snow and white-out conditions. I bundled up and trudged out at lunch time anyway, because I just had to get out of the office even if only for 20 minutes. We had white-out conditions later in the afternoon, but about 10 minutes after I left the office for the day it was over, the sky clearing a bit.

I snapped these pics at various point on the way home.
 It's a winter wonderland now.
 
 This was as I had turned into our complex, looking west over the roofs across the street.
Happily, the wind blew most of the snow into my back space, and there was very little (for once!) to shovel in my driveway. Bonus! That might not be the case tomorrow, as we're expecting another 5 cms overnight, but that's okay. I'm taking a vacation day tomorrow to check out flooring options at my leisure, as I'm busy on Saturday, so I also can shovel at my leisure, if necessary.

Take care, everyone. If you're in the path of this storm, hunker down and stay inside, safe and cosy!

Peace.

The snow does make for lovely photos. Everything looks better covered in white. The plants will do better now in the cold with a layer of snow protecting them.
We haven't shovelled out our driveway yet as the snow kept coming and coming yesterday. We are going out shortly to do it.
Be safe today!
Take care.

Brrr. It would have been nice not to have to stir from the house. I'll bet the boys looked smug as they were curled up snoozing. Some good photographs, though.

The snow is beautiful, Kim. I love your pics. But I'm with John... would want to stay home and snuggle with the boys.
