'TIS THE SEASON OF

keeping the driveway clear.

Catching snow flakes
AN INCREDIBLE WINTER SUNSET
Lake "affect" hide-n-seek

better off to take a nap!!
Stopping the wind.....
What is "Lake Effect" snow?
When the prevailing winter winds come across
Lake Michigan's warmer waters, moisture is
captured and carried into the higher elevation
where we live...it then drops it in "bands".
Which means the sun may be shining 200 feet
from where you are, but you are seeing a
blizzard.....and great amounts of snow in a
short period of time. Driving on hard packed
snow is a fact of life up here in the winter....all
goes well unless, for some reason, you need to
stop your car in a hurry....NOT!!!

Roof snow when you slam the door
