Snow-AGAIN!!

[TRnCO]

Well, we needed the moisture. Got to work early to plow snow before everyone else arrived. Was almost like plowing water. Actually was plowing water in a couple spots. Better sharpen the lawn mower blades today. Going to need them in a couple of days.

18" and still comming! THANK GOD! I would rather run the snow thrower now than evacuate from a fire later!

I hear that! I was all packed up and ready to evacuate at this time last year. This is a welcome change after watching fires burn by my house the last two years.

About half dug out.
No fire danger for at least two weeks.

Ended up having to drive to Boulder. I had Boulder Canyon all to myself. But could only go 30-35mph. RTD, of course, didn't chain up and went off the road.

All this precipitation will grow lots of new fuel for later dry spells. You can't beat nature at its own game, but you can cheat it for a while.

Sent from my electronic leash.

I'm not a fan of the snow in mid-May but I understand the "we need it" argument. However, I did just aerate my yard last weekend and got revive sprayed on it right before this storm. The yard should be looking real healthy soon.

We got about 8", all of it wet concrete. I had to go out every four hours and flail at the chokecherry trees and aspens to prevent the branches from snapping off.

...and we still had our Honeycrisp apple tree snap in half. DAMMIT!!!!!

That tree was part of our Zombie Contingency Plan. No we have to get anther one....and no apples this year.

Yeah, it's better to have snow than fire, but still...
