Insomnia, so here are some blizzard pics from Wisconsin

Feb. 6th might be a record breaker for us!  It snowed approximately 24 hours straight.   The pictures I took today do not do the depth justice.  Well, until you see the doors. 

The picture above is looking outside our front door.  You can see that it is snowing during this shot wayyy off in the distance.

I had to take this picture from inside the laundry room.  I tried to open the door to the deck, but it was drifted shut.  I figured maybe I could open the window and just stick the camera outside to get an outside shot of this next picture, but there was a chair against the window (we have casement windows) and I couldn't open that either. 

Yes, thats snow.  LOL!  I've heard on the news, there are reports of 6 foot drifts.  I can't wait to go out for a drive tomorrow :)) 

When I went to let the dogs out around 6 tonight, well, they took a look at this and 3 of the 4 turned around to head back into the house.  My oldest Duffy just plowed right through, then the rest followed.  He had to blaze the trail for the youngsters.  I didn't have the camera when I let them out dangit, but here is a shot of the back door.

It was up to my kneecaps!  I'm sure glad I don't have to go outside to potty. 

Here's a picture I took out the sunroom window just to see what would happen:

It was a great snow day here.  The entire city of Milwaukee shut down.  Even the malls!   We've got snow emergencies in effect until Friday, which is a roundabout way of saying "if you park on the street we will impound your car". By  9am they had impounded 100 cars already.  I don't think anyone believed this storm was going to end up being such a whopper.

More pictures to follow tomorrow when I can get out!
