Snow for Sale

We've had a nice few days of snow here. These pictures are actually from last Wednesday evening.
Egan, Elena, and I tried to get ahead of the shoveling. While I cleared the driveway, Elena tromped around through the snow and Egan filled his truck up.





A little bit later, after I had almost finished the driveway, Elena pushed Egan down the walk on his truck filled with snow. When they arrived at the driveway, Elena said, '7 cents please.' I paid her the imaginary money and she said, 'here is your snow' and Egan dumped the truck out. Paying to have snow delivered to your shoveled driveway? I paid another imaginary 7 cents and told them to get rid of it over the snow banks.

There is now probably about 8-10 inches of snow on the ground. It has been a pleasant day of constant snowing, but right at 32 degrees, so nothing accumulates on the street and the plows aren't out. So everything has that fresh dusted look. We are making pannekoeken for dinner. The only thing missing is a fire place for a fire.
