February 9, 2001 - our house.  The theme of the past 6 weeks has been "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow."

We got a good snowstorm over New Year's weekend, and the resultant piles of snow haven't even thought about melting.  Then this past week we got another good foot + of snow, which added to the piles around the house.

The piles of snow at the end of the driveway (which are the battleground between the plow trying to seal us in the driveway with 3 foot piles of snow and us trying to keep the end of the driveway clear) are easily as high as Amy and I.

Our poor bushes in the front yard don't stand a chance.  Our big round bush (about 6 feet in diameter and 3 - 4 feet high) is completely buried except for that one little branch sticking out.

The piles of snow at the top of the driveway are as high as the VR-4.  Not that the VR-4 is an exceptionally tall car or anything, but that's still pretty high.  And, as you can see by looking at the VR4 - it's still snowing!
