Eighteen Inches!
Tuesday, December 30, 2008

On December 26, 2008 in the late afternoon the snow began to fall. It was a picture postcard evening; fluffy flakes gently cascading down sparkling like diamonds, the twilight deepening to a deep violet. Mmmm. An enchanted Christmas in the Kootenay's.

Then Cari and I woke up the next morning to 18 inches of snow. We can get that and more over the course of the winter but never in one evening. The goats were not happy. And neither were we.

Armed with snow shovels and a ladder we went out to do battle. Six hours later, we had cleared all the roofs, the driveway and the paths to the barn and goat shed.

The following are a few pictures I took the next day.
