Last night was our first major snow storm this winter. Infact I would have to say it was the biggest snowfall we have seen in the last two years. We had an official snowfall of 30-40cm and on our hill I think our garden has received about 40-70cm of snow. It didn't drift much either, despite the strong wind.
Obligatory photos below.

Our neighbour has been out for the last couple of weekends fixing the cross country trails in preparation for the winter. We have about 25km of trails just behin the house you can see in the back ground of the photo above (if you look close you can see John with his snow blower walking along side his house). We are looking forward to the next snowfall so we can get out on the skis or the Snow Shoes. The girls have also dug out a 20x 10 feet square to make our own ice rink . Who knows I may just try to skate this year.

Well time to go dig some more the snow plough man has just ploughed the street and blocked the end of everyone's driveway.

Several more photos to finish.
