Most of the snow has melted the last few days, especially today while our temperature is in the mid 50s. It still is very pretty out there, in all the bright sunshine and now that the danger of driving in the snow and ice is over we can enjoy the snow in all its glory.
Living in the country has a few quirks. One, we don't have a lot of the modern conveniences....like fast internet connection. Another is we lose power often and for long periods at a time. The more populated areas get quicker attention then a few homes in a 5 mile radius. Also being that our streets are not busy the salt trucks or the snow removal trucks usually pass through on the rare occasion someone remembers where the farmers live. But look at this view!!! No small inconvenience could ever outshine the beauty and the quiet of country living. If you haven't tried it, do!
Keep Warm :)

One night last week we had rain and high winds resulting in us losing electricity. We lost power at 5:45 PM and it never came back on till 7:28 the next morning (12.75 hours). Got a bit chilly in the house with wind chill temps in the teens outside overnight.
So you see it doesn't happen just in the country.
We've had very little snow here this year. However, our family vacation home in NH is engulfed in snow from one of the biggest snow seasons in years. There has been so much to plow that the roads are lined with snow 12 feet high. The roof on the house was beginning to sag so someone had to be called in to remove the snow. As much as I love NH, I'm glad to have not been there this winter. The tropics are becoming much more enticing.
