They also bring out the child in me. I love stomping the snow down after each fresh snowfall. Once it's hardened, you can usually walk on top of the snowshoe trail... at least until snowmelt.

We finally caved in and bought a second shovel (well, my mother camp for a visit, got snowed in and was incredulous that we didn't have two shovels so came back from the store with one). I, too, had to dig a path to the composter. Only, the snow is nearly covering the composter and the composter is nearly full. I'm kinda okay with that because I think it will mean that I'll get to try vermicomposting this January!Gus&Ottohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08375764957301291503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620646226349339372.post-60974681629801518132007-12-21T19:40:00.000-08:002007-12-21T19:40:00.000-08:00Wow thats a lot of snow.

Maybe your delivery was delayed, but it looks like a healthy amount. I always did imagine Ottawa having significant winters, I just was suprised to see you were snowless not that long ago!Gardenistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129253261044774675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620646226349339372.post-36816204855829506972007-12-19T10:12:00.000-08:002007-12-19T10:12:00.000-08:00Gardenista said that?

They might be shorter, but they were often more brutal (at least while I lived there, 1985-2001). Regina might not be as bad as La Ronge - but we haven't had the dumps of snow that Ottawa used to receive. <BR/><BR/>All that shovelling ...that's when kids come in handy!
