Mostly Bob

 Since Jon's birthday, this town has gotten a LOT of snow. If it keeps up, there might be as much as there was in the late 80's. However, as I type, it is turning back to pellets and will probably become freezing rain. Piffle.
Sunday, Feb 10, the bird feeders were mostly empty of seed, one had a mix of seed and snow. I did empty it out on Monday, though. In spite of the snow in the seed, juncos were eager to snack.

Just prior to Sunday we had what Jon called soft hail. This, thankfully, turned to real snow. A great deal of real snow and Jon decided it needed removed using Bob. 

 So, he drove it down from Grandma's. Kids and their toys!!!!!!

After he finished our area, he came in to warm up and then zipped over to where he works to clear out their drive. 

 I'm not entirely sure how effective Jon's Bobcat work was. The amount of snow we got overnight probably added 4 more inches of lovely fluffy down. He's going to go back after work on Monday. I did notice that with the wind and extra white stuff, the projector in the yard is covered again. I reckon the giant snowflakes will remain in the sky and not on the house, unless I go out with a broom again! It is about in the middle of the hollow next to the mostly cleared sidewalk. (thank you to our neighbor, Gary!!)

I'm so glad for winter and snow. I just wish it would stay fluffy and not turn into that icky melty rainy stuff that makes people slide. Although, I could do with the sort that can be made into a snowman. I've not made one this year.
