So Much Snow! #TobyB @kolo_Martin

Winter Storm Jonas dropped some snow on us. Apparently winter storms are named after boy bands now. Isn't that adorable!

It was less than two feet of snow but everyone was in a tizzy over it. It is so easy to prepare for a major storm. Have at least a week worth of food on hand, preferably items that don't need cooking. Have flashlights and lots of blankets at the ready in case power goes out. Assume you won't go to work for at least one day, even if you own a half-track or some such. It doesn't get better than this!

There is, of course, the problem of shoveling the snow. My humans aren't the youngest folks on the block, so they count on it taking two days to dig out. They work slowly but the job still gets done.



The storm dropped over twenty inches of snow on us,
but my homemade sweater and hat kept me toasty warm.

My cats enjoyed playing in the snow.


This snow-covered pine tree is beautiful.
