Blizzard Aftermath


I never did update on the aftermath of the blizzard. The official total was 14 inches, with drifts that were up to 4-5 feet. You can compare this photo of our house with the one from the previous blog post.




It would have taken forever to shovel our long driveway. Our neighbor Rose and we split the $25 to have a random guy on a tractor come plow our driveway. Another reason why I love Kirskville :)

Here was the aftermath!


I mentioned a possible attempt at bread baking in the last post...which I did attempt. It doesn't look too bad, but it was very dense and tasted terrible!! I think largely due to the fact that I used old, whole wheat flour. Next time I will use white flour!



And to end this post--here is a random picture of people ice fishing. When the ice is thick enough you find people every morning out here on Spur Pond. So awesome. They are very brave. The highs last week were almost all in the single digits, with windchill it was usually below zero!
