    So this area has broken a 52 year old record for snow fall amount. Last count was 470 cm (15.4 feet). Sad news for us as there is another system moving in for tomorrow afternoon and evening. It may be spring but the Maritime provinces sure don't know it!:( Here are a few pictures around my door yard.

    The neighbours house is just barely visible. The snow plowed in front of my house. Then there is a view down my driveway and another view of a snow drift by the side of my house. I shoveled a path to the greenhouse and I didn't reach the ground. These pictures were taken just this week. Got snow? Yup we got snow!

    Oh boy you really have got a massive amount of snow haven't you?
    We haven't had snow like that around here for a few years now thank goodness.
    I hope you are managing to cope OK and that it will slowly melt away so that you can, eventually, see your garden again.

    2015 - the year of snow for Stewbies. I feel for all stuck with that hindrance when all you want to do is get out and garden. Hope it melts for you soon Chrisle :fingerscrossed:

    I've been hearing about the crazy amounts of snow from the east coast Chrisle. Hang in there!

    This is indeed a record year for snow fall. I'm so glad I live in a warm state.
