Snow, snow, glorious snow - every day brings a little bit mo'

My snow-covered house before the new foot of snow fell!
I went for a long walk today in the new snow - all 12 plus inches of it.  Some places, the snow was up to my knees - and remember, I didn't sink all the way down to the ground, so imagine how much snow there was!  I passed a woman sitting outside her house all bundled up, and said hello.  She responded "Isn't the snow beautiful?" and we exchanged a few enthusiastic thoughts about the wonders of the landscape.

Pete took this photo of his backyard at Canal Pointe.  It doesn't look real, somehow; it looks like a magical country, perhaps from the Nutcracker Ballet.
Wednesday afternoon, I saw a troupe of ten or so Westminster Choir College students putting together this gigantor snow person, but my phone camera battery was dead, so I went back today, Thursday, and got this rather dark, gloomy shot.
