Fun In The Snow

Post Reply New Topic

Winter brings the problem of heating, especially when you live in a damn isolated cottage like I do. Pellets appear to be the solution, but it's sometimes quite a bother bringing them into the house...



Especially when the house in question is atop a hill, and the pellet bags need to be taken down to the basement.



A solution is to shovel a path...



...and the entrance to the basement and those pellets that need to be taken in are essentially on the same elevation! Just to grab a wheelbarrow and get to it.

Shovelling the path was of course quite time-consuming, but that's another matter.

What have you done in the snow lately?

Thrown snowballs for my dog. He loves the snow.

That is some good snow. It hasn't snowed here, but 49 out of the 50 states had snow yesterday (Hawaii was the one that didn't get any).

Well if it isn't the mighty Henriksson who's come back to show us his conquered terrain.

I'd love some snow, right about now.

I went sledding \m/

My area had two wonderful days of a thick blanket of snow, but sadly, it's all starting to melt.

the most amount of snow we've had here is enough to make a snowman. it normally melts by the end of the day. i still have the same snow that fell last year in my free....zer....*runs to freezer* someday killed snowey!! ! poor snowey...

It sucks living in San Antonio because it rarely snows. the last time my city got snow was in 1985.

Back when I lived in Wyoming, when it'd snow we'd usually have constant 20-40mph wind with 60-90mph gusts, so we'd get these insanely deep snow drifts. I'd go over to my friend's house and jump off of his 20ft porch into them. It was pretty fun.

we got roughly 40 inchs, and I was excited at first, until it came time to shovel it! My back finaly stopped hurting from it. I dont mind 1 or 2 feet of fluffy/light snow, but 3 feet of heavy snow is no fun when you have to shovel it by hand

Hey Henriksson, nice to see ya and cool photos, very cosy snowy, thanks for sharing
And the most fun I have done in snow lately is to drag home my groceries with a plastic sleigh. Very practical when its too much snow to use the bike I usually use for this purpose...
I dont mind the winter at all. I think its awesome its so stabile and long lasting. But wow what the spring will takes time to come on with the process to melt everything off!

I'd hate to be a party pooper, but I haven't seen a snowflake in 12 years, and I don't miss them one little bit! 38 winters of that stuff was more than enough for me. Now I'm living the Canadian Dream - I moved to Florida.

It snowed about 10 inches last Monday night, so Wednesday my brother invited me to go snowmobiling with him. My winter is now complete, it really is, snow can go away now.

So far this whole winter I've,

Driven in the snow
gone snowmobiling
made a snowman
and went to winterfest with the jr. high youth group I run sound for.
