It's been snowing for four days now. We've got around 4 feet on the ground with 6-7 foot drifts.
Town plow truck came through last night and tried to widen the road with a wing. Big mistake. Snow is too heavy. So, it did have a fairly clear single lane. Now ? Road is block in many places with snow balls 3-4 feet in diameter. I wish they'd give it up and just stay away. Years back they'd close the road and I'd plow myself out - and things worked much better.
News this morning says two dairy barns have collpased and half a down houses. But, it's not secret that there's tons of snow on these roofs. So, I can't feel sorry for someone who makes no effort to clear them. I DO feel sorry for some of the cows that have gotten crushed, or old folks who can't do the work for themselves.
Our old out-house not looking very comfortable.

Some buried tractors and SUV by the solar panels.
