Snowed In
Welcome to Here! So close to Lake Michigan that snow has taken on a whole new meaning. Have you heard of Lake Effect Snow? I had, sure, living by Lake St. Clair can result in lake effect snow, but not Lake Effect Snow. Lake Effect Snow is insane! It snows, then snows some more and then Jinkies Batman! Even more! Wow! It is so pretty and fluffy that it is like living in a snow globe. Luckily I don't get dizzy when Mother Nature shakes that globe, because she shakes it a lot. Step back and look at my house (can you see it? It is covered in piles of snow) notice the awesome icicles? They are pretty wicked! Ours make the house look like it has shiny shark teeth, really sharp shark teeth. Pretty and not deadly at all. When they drop from the roof, they make a lot of noise, but they time themselves to not fall on anyone. Luckily I don't get jealous, cos some other houses have icicles hanging from their roof to the ground. Pretty amazing! Our deck is a massive snow pillow. I am thinking about making a snow angle in the middle of it, or maybe have the kids. It is cold out there. I sure hope that the deck can support the 12 inches of snow it has on it. It must be pretty strong. Let's go check out the lake, it is amazing covered in ice. There are a few crazy people fishing out there. Do they catch frozen fish? Hm? The hills and sand dunes are covered in snow and ready for the kids. Great for sledding or snowshoeing or even skiing. No sledding for me, would bruise my tailbone! Trust me I would or fall walking back up the hill, I am rather clumsy. Hm? What to do, what to do. Oh I know! I am gonna sit right here in front of my nice warm fireplace, warm my ice cubed toes, drink some mulled wine and watch Mother Nature turn that globe one more time. Really, she can stop any day now, this stuff will be with us til May!
