annie soup: perspective

it seems as though the weather has been a pretty hot topic this winter. and rightly so! this winter has been the worst! but as i went out for the 60th hour this season to plow the road i went with a different perspective: THINGS CAN ALWAYS BE WORSE! (no joke, when the winter began we were at 90 hours on the bobcat and now we're pushing 150).

i'm lucky to live where i do, and when i'm not swearing at mother nature i am in total awe of her complete grandeur. i won't be living here forever, and so when i have a 500sq ft driveway to dig out in the future i will be SO grateful it's not a quarter mile of 4 foot drifts.

it was an amazing night tonight. no wind. light snow. fresh adele tunes in my ears. i could've stayed out all night. i live for a night like tonight. i got out of the bobcat a couple times to snap a few photos. it was so quiet out. i could've walked in the night for hours. there is something relaxing for me about walking on a still, quiet, dark night.

as a side note, robbie is the opposite. he hates walking around at night, especially during the camping season. so if you ever camp here on a friday night, don't pretend to be the wolfman at 11pm because you'll probably end up getting stabbed. i bought him a hunting knife so he can "protect" himself. it's hilarious.

so here are some pictures to give some perspective. things could always be worse! but spring is almost here, and all this snow will not only flood our basements but make everything UBER-green!
