15 Inches of New Snow This Morning

 

My neighbor blowing snow at end of my driveway in Chaumont, NY.

Yesterday it snowed most of the day. A light, steady snow. By this morning there was 15 inches of new snow to clear. It was only 6 degrees. So my neighbor Jim borrowed neighbor Richard's snow blower and gave me some help. He blew out the street end of my driveway. Cold as it was , it was sunny and pleasant to be outside. Between the snow and bringing in firewood I spent a good 3 hours out there. Walked 6,798 steps today. Here are some more photos from today.

Snow and Cold Today in Northern NY

Awoke to snow falling this morning and cooler temperatures. There was about 4 inches of snow when I went out at 10:30. Temperatures today were a high of 19 and currently at 7:30 it's a low of 9 degrees. 

The photo here is my neighbor being neighborly as he uses his snowblower on my driveway. 

Other things today: I added some magnetic cabinet door catches to the antique oak dresser we got for Christmas. Had meatloaf for dinner. I phone app shows I took 4,503 steps today. 

My neighbor is very kind helping with the snow, but a snowblower seems like overkill to me with the small amount of snow we had and how light it was.
