Blue sky & Snow in Spokane I love it.

Snow removal....

Ok, today we are expecting more snow on top of the almost 60 inches we have received. So we needed to get up on the flat roof part of the church and clear the massive amounts of snow. You can see in the first picture between the two buildings, that the snow pile is almost to the top of the roof!For some reason some smart builder thought it would be cool to put the real flat part of the roof between two other parts so all the snow would accumulate and not be able to drain off...last year the middle part of the roof caved in...hopefully this year it won't do that again.I was so thankful to get help from Jim and Josh and a crew of Karen refugees led by Moon Light. They all helped us remove a ton of snow...I'm not sure if I will be able to move tomorrow!

Another cold one...

We have been having a lot of snow falling around here, yesterday we hit a record, (for around here) 13 inches in one day. With all this snow, I think I will put it to use like dude who took the picture above...always the optimist!

WInter wonders....

Old man winter is exerting his influence around here. I had to pull out the snow blower today and clear the sidewalks around the church and house. We plan on heading South for Christmas, so I am not sure if we will head to the hills to cut down a tree this year or not?
I was listening to the Christmas song "I wish you a merry christmas" the other day and heard the lyrics: "...bring us some figgy pudding." I must confess...I do not want any "figgy pudding". Odd.
