Buried Alive!

I opened my door to go to school the other day, expecting to have to do some shoveling in order to climb up out of my house, to find a formidable sight:



It took me quite a while to get that door to shut again!  Fortunately, I have another door, plus friends willing to come and dig me out.  Ms.B tunneled through before Mr.T & Mr.N arrived to do the serious clearing:


Here's the front of my house from the outside:

Here's my neighbor's house, which disappeared from my sight during the blizzard the other day, it was a complete white out:


Throughout these snowy days, I really appreciate all the hands that have reached out to help me:


And, apparently, the frigid fun is not over yet... we are hunkering down for a new blizzard beginning tonight that is supposed to last throughout the weekend.  I am thankful to be at home, one of the basketball teams from another village has been stranded here since last weekend!
