Blue Skies Finally!

We finally woke up this morning to clear blue skies. The winds are still blowing, but no more snow falling! Now the worry is that our gutters are filled with snow that melted and is now solid ice. These photos were taken yesterday afternoon after the majority of the snow had stopped.


We shoveled and used the snow blower on the driveway. Also tried to snow blow a newspaper in a bag hidden in a drift of snow. :-( That took a good while to pull out of the blades.



These icicles are quite wicked looking, aren't they!
We hope our gutters will hold until the ice inside melts.




The local school systems here are all closed until Monday at least. Today is the fourth day the federal government has been closed. First time in history!! We are starting to get cabin fever. I miss driving!


I finished all but 2 blocks yesterday from the Schnibbles

"Sunday Best" quilt out of Panache.

So, that is my project for the day!

Up to the sewing room I go!!
Stay warm! :-)
