This morning, January 31, I utilized Chubs to provide a little perspective. In this rare picture, he is actually standing still. Notice how the snow behind him is almost as tall as he is. I've cleared the driveway of at least four inches of snow four of the last five days.

We're learning that the North Country (that's what the locals call this neck of the woods) is an interesting place to be in the winter. I would say we've got around two and a half feet on the ground right now and we're not even into the month of February. Historically, February has less snow than January, so we'll see how things pan out!
A wicked cold winter morning.
