Second Round of Snow for 2010

This has been the winter of winters for us. First there was the fantastic icicle snow.

Now we have experienced the fourth largest snowfall in the history of Pittsburgh.
 
Within 12 hours we went from having no snow to 24 inches of the white stuff.  Noone could keep up with the accumulation.  Yes we had to shovel a path across the deck for our dog.  Even she had trouble with the depths.
 
 
We hired two neighborhood boys to help clear the drive way.  It took them and my wonderful hubby all day to move the heavy wet layers of snow from the middle of the drive to the sides.  Oh the piles that were created!
 
 
Once the drive was cleared, I ventured out to make the necessary trip to the store.  I took the opportunity to take some pictures of the beauty that comes with such infrequent mass snowfall.

 
  
  
 
And I couldn't help but feel sorry for whomever lives here.  You know it's bad when you have to dig down to your mailbox.
