Ugh. Just spent two hours with the boy shoveling two feet of snow off the trampoline before it ripped through (It has a screen cage so you can't just push it off, you have to get a scoop of snow and push it to the opening and then use a push brrom to pull it out the doorway). We then dug out the generator so it wouldn't be buried in case it autostarts in the middlie of the night.
Here's a shot of the boy reshoveling the dog's pee path...that I excavated at 6:00 AM this morning. It fills in every two hours. The dogs don't seem to mind. The husky/lab mix is quite happy and the Jack-huahua is having a ball playing the surfacing submarine in "Hunt For Red October". You just see him bob up out of the snow every few feet.
The cats are doing fine in case anyone was wondering. They got really exhausted from all that supervising all day.
