Neighborhood Pictures - WS Nemo

Just a post with some pictures of the neighborhood of winterstorm Nemo that arrived on Friday Feb 8 2013 and like one of those guests that come for the party and don't leave until you practically have to show them the door, stayed until Saturday.  What was left behind was lots of snow and many people without power and heat.  National Grid is doing everything they can to restore the state back to pre storm situation, but it is very cold and hard for some to be patient.  Anyhow take a look ...

Our cars are under there!

Up the snowy hill

I loved how this snow covered tree looked

When I awoke and looked out the window I couldn't see a thing ... this is why - all of our windows were blanketed with a layer of wind blown snow.  It almost looks as if the house was sprayed with water that froze.

My rhododendron outside my front window.  I had to look down to take this picture.  In the spring when it blooms it is halfway up the window, now it is nearly laying on the ground with all the weight of the snow on it.

  

...and today is bright and sunny, clear blue skies and freezing cold.  Good day for a walk!
