It's hard to believe, but we average 10 feet (3 meters) per winter in central New York state. The city is well equipped with plows and sanders, but nevertheless, I dread driving in it. <br /><br />Your photos are beautiful! That's how I like snow; inside looking out :-)Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17237805282007404140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-54725326055997149992017-12-11T17:17:21.264+00:002017-12-11T17:17:21.264+00:00kden, Joe used to cut the pampas down but I can...kden, Joe used to cut the pampas down but I can't (or won't) do that, not yet anyway.

I love the pampas grass you have (goes by so many names). Our dog used to adore the snow but I sure don't miss cleaning it off of her everytime she came in.
