This is not a snow drift! We have about two feet now. This area you are looking at in the picture was CLEAR yesterday. There was actual patio out there. This is not even the area of the yard that drifts in. I'd hate to think how deep that is. And it is still snowing hard and strong.

I decided I did not want to shoot today as that would require plowing a path to the shooting table, cleaning two feet of snow off it, plowing out the shooting range, and then sitting out there in a blizzard. We are getting lake effect off Lake Superior as well, so we are really getting dumped on. That's all right. It will all melt by July and then start back up again in August... I jsut threw three more logs in the wood stove..
