I am a happily married guy who enjoys spending time with his wife, daughter, son, and dog (German Shepherd Dog “Bear”). My hobbies, which I am very passionate about, include hunting, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, camping, home improvements, and automobiles. I am a typical male who enjoys working with his hands and “tinkering”, problem solving and trouble shooting, and being in the outdoors. I work full-time at a suburban police department and volunteer as a firefighter.

SNOW!!!

This post is actually current time now, so I am 100% caught up with my journal! I am REALLY going to try and stick with my "once a week" posting for the rest of the year! I'm not holding my breath however...

Anyway, I really picked a bad time to take a vacation from my blog. This winter we have had a TON of snow. I don't know where we are but we are within a few inches of being the snowiest winters on record. We have had three significant (over ten inch) snowfalls since November. I had to get the snowmobile out and run it in the backyard because Bear could not make it through the snow! We also had a week of temperatures in the 50's that actually exposed some grass! It would have been real cool to show weekly updates on how high the snow was, but maybe next time. I do have a couple front and back yard shots to share and hopefully more to come!

We were supposed to get about two to six inches of snow today, which ended up being about a wet inch or so and it has all since melted. I know they have another "event" forecasted for this weekend, but it sounds like it is going to be a wintry mix and mainly rain and sleet. I am happy with the snow fall this year, but I am about done dealing with it at work and not having four wheel drive in the Suburban makes it a little more of an annoyance than normal!
