So 2008 has arrived and Mother Nature decided to go to it starting about 2PM yesterday by letting the snow fall and she's not stopped yet. It's still snowing! Mercifully, it's not a heavy wet snow and it's not like we've got a foot of snow on the ground, but we have enough. Enough to start the day off shoveling. You can see from the pictures above what it looked like before the shovels came out.
Parker came out as soon as he woke up to join me in the shoveling escapade. This snow was a drag because as it came down last night we had a lot of people walking up to the house before we could shovel so it packed it down and we had a lot of ice to jam through. Lovely.
So today it's time to strip the house of all things Christmas and get back to normal. The kids are off the rest of the week but I go back to work tomorrow. It's time. I've been off eight or nine days straight. Time to get back in the swing of things professionally.
The rest of the day will probably be spent watching a couple more DVD's, especially the BBC's "Planet Earth." If you've not seen it, carve out some time, rent it and watch it. It is some of the most amazing footage you've ever seen. I think it may drive Courtney to become a vegan and join PETA, but it captures nature at its best and it's incredible. The "Shallow Seas" section has got to be some of the most unbelievable stuff ever captured on film. Good, good stuff.
