Yikes, that IS a lot!
We've got more than our usual in Ohio (and are getting some now!), but not as much as you---we only see that much at our cabin, up north. Up to our waists.

Oh please, give us some snow! We don´t have any. Our winters used to be like that, a lot of snow, but not anymore.

Holy cow! That is A LOT of snow! I've never seen that much here. I think we might have gotten that much when I lived in Nebraska for two years when I was a kid. Keep warm!

Thanks for sharing your pictures. How does that poor little doggie use the potty in that much snow?!?!?! LOL.
I would LOVE for you to send some to KY. I remember getting snow like that when I was in school. I sure would like to have BIG snows again!
Keep warm and safe.

We don't have that much, but we certainly have enough. The only time I like snow is during the first snowfall of the season.
I remember 4 yrs ago this week we had a 3' snowstorm. My kids went out to play but couldn't even walk because it was so deep LOL

I have never seen that much snow either! Wow! We have quite a bit of snow here The weather man is calling for 7 inches by midnight and more to come. Nothing compared to 2 feet. btw I love the pic of your dog in the snow I got a good laugh out of it he looks so cute with the snow up to his neck.
