Snow Day!

Itsa's latest scheme is burning her whiskers off by getting too close to the candles...

I can't resist the flame...must get closer.

Too close! Too close!

We had quite a big snow storm yesterday so I got to work from home today. I did, however, take a break to walk around, check out the roads and take some pictures. I really just wanted to walk in the snow in my boots though! It makes it so fun!

Roanoke West apartments

Side streets: not for the wimpy cars but Bruce loves them!

Main streets: good to go!!

 I walked down to the Plaza to check out the situation. Seems like our area got maybe 5 or 6 inches.

These are my tracks in the snow! Love walking in fresh snow!

Brush Creek

There should be a creek in here

Picnic table

A little water was running over the ledge

Only one other person had walked on the sidewalk alongside Brush Creek

This wide space looks like a clean street but it's actually the creek!

The creek was frozen solid! I stood on it long enough to take this picture but then I got scared!

So what do you do with all that snow from the streets? Why, pile it up in the middle lane of course!

Bruce got a few inches! Fortunately, no ice, so it came right off

The lawn in front of Nelson-Atkins- so pretty!

The roads are all cleared up so back to work tomorrow! Some people when they were driving home last night, it took them 2-3 hours to get home (in what normally would be a 20-30 minute drive). So I was sooo grateful that I got to leave work early and was safe and sound in my apartment during the storm.

Til next time...Laura
