An Early Snowfall in Rotterdam, New York

When Eric woke me up this morning, he said, "Today you'll have a good blog post."  Curiosity pushed me bound out of my warm bed.






There it was...
a blanket of snow
about an inch deep.







According to the morning's news, about half of the United States is covered with snow this morning. That monster storm that hit Alaska last week is still affecting weather across the country.

The slide topper is

weighed down with

now. 

Even though it's snowy outside, Eric and I are toasty warm in our motorhome.

The middle of the street
is clear.

The even coating of snow

on this roof shows that

the attic is well insulated.

The lack of an even snow

cover on this roof shows

that the attic isn't well

insulated.

It's raining...

35 degrees Fahrenheit

Snow slides off
solar panels.

A slushy driveway

If it isn't cleared, it will

freeze in lumpy ruts.

Snow covered harvest
decorations

Footprints going toward

the house, then away... 

There are still leaves 

on the trees.

The fallen leaves will

be harder to rake

when they are soggy.

The steep pitch of this

house's entry has

 less snow.

I see footprints across
the rear section of
a roof.

They continue across the

side section of the roof.

This section of sidewalk
on Princetown Road
needs to be cleared.

The Christmas decorations

look great in the snowy

surroundings.

I look forward to warmer temperatures and melting snow that will make this morning's walk a memory.
