Snowstorm

We had our first snowstorm of the year yesterday. When it was all said and done, 7 inches of snow had fallen.

Determined to prevent ice dams this year, in addition to clearing the driveway and the sidewalks, I also cleared the snow off the roof. As I was on the roof of the second story looking out on our neighborhood on a sunny day, I saw an old neighbor take his snowblower over to the house of our soon-to-be-new neighbor and clear his driveway, sending the soon-to-be-new neighbor and his shovel into the house to work on his remodeling project. I saw other neighbors chatting, and others walking their dogs. My hands were wet and cold and I had snow in my boots, but I was serene.
