Have You Had Enough Yet?

It's been wonderful getting so many appreciative comments about the snow photos I've been posting, but as the village locals are remarking to each other in the street, "Have you had enough snow yet?" 

This gives a new connotation to the word "snowmobile,"  as well as some idea as to the amount of snow that has fallen.

 The local hardware store is taking on the look of a catherdral pipe organ with its display of icicles.

The village dress shop is having a bit of trouble keeping its window displays visible behind the mounds of snow, but the sidewalk and stairs are always kept hopefully cleared.

I believe the folks who own the old-time garage, seen below, have climbed a ladder to the roof and are sending signals to their home planet to beam them back.

Either that, or they're participating in the latest winter craze of shovelling one's roof.

Our friends' house is sporting some jaunty epaulettes these days,

while their barn wears a white toque, softly detailed with an organic design knitted in a tender charcoal hue.

But I think we should hurry home for some hot chocolate, or maybe something a little stronger, because--guess what--another blizzard is on its way!  Ah well, at this point, what's another 30 centimetres?
