Its January Again and a

Blizzard Hits Chicago

After being spared most of the winter from any huge snowfall, we got hit over the mid January weekend with a blast of over a foot of snow.  We spent most of the weekend digging out while the boys helped our neighbors clear their drives as well.

Picture left is shown on our driveway during the worst of it. Even Whirlaway, our cat, insisted on being in the portrait. Over the years this has become perhaps my favourite picture of the family.

Snap below and to the right shows our street plowed during a break in the Snowfall.  Although many complain about winter and the bad weather, as you can see it is beautiful and it doesn't last that long. In three months we will be on the Golf  Course!
