Snow, Snow, Snow… And More Snow

Don’t get me wrong, I love Canada. Like, we get wonderful sunsets: I took these a couple of days ago:

Winter Sunset Winter Sunset

We already had a big snow storm a couple of weeks ago. And now, this morning, I woke up to that:

Looking At The Window

Trying To Open The Door

Yeah… Fortunately, I wasn’t working today. However, how am I supposed to get out?

Lots of Snow
Lots of Snow
Gonna Shovel!
Gonna Shovel!

The true Canadian way I guess. I grabbed the shovel and started digging a way out:

Digging Trenches
Digging Trenches
Life Goes On!
Life Goes On!

I managed to dig my way out and get the mail. Beautiful trenches, isn’t it? However, there’s not way I can shovel the driveway and back out with the car… there’s at least 60 cm of snow. The snow banks on the side of the road are almost a meter high! So I’m home, on the coach and I watch the blizzard.

We’re hoping someone will help us shovel tonight with a car. Another 20 cm of snow is expected tomorrow… Wish me luck to go to work!
