Snow Storm!

It's been crazy out here in Chiloquin! The last couple of days the snow's been falling non-stop! Snow flurries whizzed in and continued on their insane path and left us here, trying to dig ourselves and our neighbors out of our snow caved houses. The thick snow formed into sweeping rise’s by the wind, and in some places the drifts are around 4 1/2 feet deep!

It’s nice to have a big snow. I think to many, being snowed in is an inconvenience. But, personally, I like it. Course it makes it difficult to get into town and get food, but there’s something about ‘battling the elements’, and surviving that attracts me, and makes a good snowed in day feel extra fun. Though it’s not as extreme as to where we’re eating bark off the trees and drinking melted snow, it certainly cuts off a fair amount of communication with civilization. J Enough that it makes it feel survival-ish.
