Whatcom County is getting another dumping of snow. It is a snowy white wonderland outside with well over a foot of snow everywhere in town and more in the outlying areas. This is a photo of my husband, Chris, getting our mail. Getting in and out of the driveway proved mostly impossible because of snow drifts so we parked on the road.

This is the road leading to our home. Underneath the thick layer of snow is an even thicker layer of ice. Only trucks and cars with chains are out on the road today.

Our buried birdhouse with a lovely view of the surrounding snow-covered hills.

The shallow end of the lake has started to freeze. My husband said that it's been at least 30 years since he's seen the lake freeze. The snow is scheduled to go through Christmas day, making life snowy white, children happy and drivers fearful.
