February 2, 2011 Wednesday Afternoon

Spent the night watching the HUGE snow storm of 2011. It was crazy last night here in Milwaukee. At times the snow was coming down so hard and the wind blowing so hard you could not see across the street. Went to bed around 11 PM.

This morning we woke up to being buried alive. LOL. Was up by 7 AM. Everything is closed in Milwaukee today. We got about 20 inches of snow last night. Snow drifts as high as 6 feet. The snow was so high we had to dig out the back door just to open it. You can see in one of the pictures just how high the snow is around the door. If you ever wanted to know what a Milwaukee snow storm looks like I included a few pictures of our house and around it. Tony is plowing, me shoveling. We will drive to Tony's mom's house later this afternoon to dig her out. I am sure it will take us most of the day just to dig our own cars out. Most of the expressways are still closed so it will have to be later today when we dig Tony's mom out. Enjoy the pictures and be lucky you aren't here in Milwaukee.
