Snow anyone?

Well here in NW New Jersey we are finally experiencing winter.   Our area was hit with 
30"+ of snow over the weekend, thanks to Jonas.

By the way, when did they begin to name winter storms?

We purchased a plow for our lawn tractor this fall, hoping it would be an insurance policy that we would not get a lot of snow.   HA.....what it did do was insure that my husband's back would not hurt so much after this weekend.

We live in an area of NJ that is farmland and lots of open space. Yes, NJ is not just shoreline.

Neighbors came out and helped neighbors....even though where I live there are only 6 nearby homes.

So here are some photos from what Jonas graced our area with.

Taken from outside the great room, looking east.   My finch feeder, I HAD to shovel a path so I 
can add seed.

Nature is beautiful.
