You've all heard of the blizzard that's hitting the VA-DC-MD area? We are right in the target zone, and I think it's the biggest snow storm that I can remember!
Hoo boy have we ever been "SnowPocalypse"'d up one side and down the other! It all started yesterday morning and just now looks like it might be winding down. Mom won't let us in the back yard at all. She says she can't find it! Huh??
You can see it from the upstairs bathroom:
And here's the other part of it:
But you can't see it from the back door:
Those trees in the yard aren't supposed to be touching the ground -- that's at least 2 feet of snow, maybe more. There are garden stakes 2 and 4 feet tall and the tall ones are almost gone in the second picture.
Mom let me go out on the deck and stand in a spot they cleared out to show you what 24 inches is to little ol' me...
The table on the deck in the previous pic measured 23 inches, but Mom just went out with the stick again and now it's officially 26 inches! Who knows what it's like in the yard....
Hey someone get me out of here! (the new measurement is 25 inches on the deck)
We are quite snowbound... the Jeep can get out but not everyone can!
Last night I stood on a snowbank and directed the snow shoveling: (9 inches on the ground then)
And checked around the corner for rabbits, there were none..
Mom's truck was covered,and overnight collected about 14-15 more inches around it ..
We had to be taken out front to do our business all day, and at one point Ollie made a break for it! Don't know where he was going but he said something about running to somewhere warmer...
He didn't get far! Maybe tomorrow Mom will let us find us just how DEEP our back yard really is --
Stay warm guys!
Love,
Snowbound Rudy
