Arctic Blast - Part 2

Here are some new photos from "out Sandy way." All of these were taken from inside through the windows, but they don't look too bad. We have significantly more snow than in the photos from the post from last night (probably about 12 inches more).

This photo is of our backyard. As you can see, the arborvitae are seriously leaning under the weight of the ice and snow. I don't look forward to this spring when I have talk to the landlord of that property and try to convince him to trim those... yikes!

I just cleared that car off yesterday! As you can see, the mailbox pole is slowly being buried, as is the Japanese maple.

The snow on our deck is piling up. We're taking bets new as to whether or not the snow will reach the rail.

The Chinese cherry tree is leaning under the weight of the ice and snow, too.

With the arborvitae leaning down, we can see chimneys for three houses from our bedroom window now. Those trees in the background are magnificent!

Here's my "artsy" photo... actually, Beka's "artsy" photo. Nicely done, Bek!

One more photo of the maple in the backyard with ice and snow, and the neighbor's fence in the background.

Cheers!

Love all your snow pics! Especially the artsy ones. :) It will be fun next year when Des can get excited about snow... If we get any next year. I think we've had our fair share for awhile.
