Dennis rescued us! With a lot of help from Digger, the Kubota Tractor. And it only took two days to get from the barn to the road and then back up our quarter of a mile long drive. Now we have to dig out the woodpile and try to do some shoveling around the house, which is pretty buried.

We're not prepared for this type of thing here in New Mexico, you have to understand. Usually, we get a really good snow, and then at my elevation (7,000 feet), once the sun comes out, it all melts away, leaving a nice white blanket of snow for me to admire from a distance on the Pecos Mountains or the Sangre de Cristos. Frankly, I prefer sitting on my front deck all wrapped up in my woolies, sipping a hot cup of coffee, warm sun on my face, admiring the white stuff from afar.
