snow storm

we've had a few light dustings of snow this fall, but nothing compared to the storm that came three nights ago. it snowed for 2 nights and 2 days straight and on and off for the following day. the storm left us with 26 inches of snow. normal snow-ready vehicles got stuck in the snow, including our tractor that we use to plow the snow. it'll be clear for the next few days, so we'll be able to clear the roads before the next storm arrives on tuesday. i love the pristineness and the quiet it is when it snows. it's also great for making snow sculptures like this igloo. the other photos are landscape pathway lights covered in snow at night.
