February Blizzard



Well here are the effects of the Blizzard of 2007. It started snowing late Monday night and didn't stop until early Wednesday morning. We have about 13-15 inches of snow with snow drifts everywhere. As you can see our mailbox is almost completely covered. The first couple of pictures is of the front yard and the last two are of the back yard. Not only did we get tons of snow but there were a few hours were we got nothing but sleet with wind gusts of about 30 mph. It truly was awful up here. Most counties are still under snow emergencies today.




Not only are schools closed but county and city offices and other businesses have closed b/c they are still telling people to stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary. Rush hour on Tuesdsay night showed maybe 5 cars on the Interstate. It truly was a sight to see. Our dog can barely go outside, the snow completely covers his legs and part of his belly. Us here in the Boone house are over the snow, we hope we don't get anymore but supposedly it is supposed to snow again on Saturday! How fun for us!!!



You can't really tell how deep the snow is here in the back, but it is high enough that you can barely see the road behind our house. These were taken about 5:30 pm on Tuesday and it was sleeting at this time, so just imagine 5-6 more inches on top of what you already see!
