Snow, Snow, and More Snow

The snow fall this winter has been amazing. Being new to the Canyon, I'm not sure if it is an abnormal year - like Gary keeps assuring this non-lover of snow - or if it is how each winter will be but, man oh man have we gotten snow!

It started snowing again yesterday and continued last night. The trees are again covered. They had begun to drop the snow from their branches after the last "dusting" of snow. This time we have well over a foot of fresh white snow to cover the foot we had left from the last storm. I thought I'd post some pictures of our back and front yards this morning.

Off of our front porch. The accumulation on railing post happened after the boys were done playing outside yesterday evening.


This is pointing toward our neighbor's houses out our front door.


This is the back yard. The tree branch was already bent so I don't think it's going to drop anytime soon but it does look ominous with all the snow on it doesn't it?


If you look closely, you can see the frame of our trampoline and the rocking chair I had on our front porch in Chubbuck.
