The snowiest winter

Mertz's truck is buried under the massive snows.

here's no question: we are in the midst of the most snow I've ever lived through. There is snow on the ground that is too deep for me or Yukon to walk through. There is snow covering every inch of every thing outdoors. Mertz's truck is buried. The sheep can't leave the shelter. The driveway is a mess.

There is snow everywhere. Not since I was young do I remember seeing it pile up like this. But even then we were hit with quick, major storms. This winter, we have seen the slow, steady increase of snow. It's incredible.

Today it snowed even more. It's hard not to be amazed, or to stare at the snow in wonder. It's just incredible to see all of this. Truly incredible.
