Let it snow!

It's still snowing away! It seems to have picked up more now - well, the wind has! In the afternoon we ventured out. MIL was not so keen. She was really worried that I will trip and fall somewhere. I kept insisting that as long as it snows it will be okay and if we find it even one bit slippery then we will turn back.

So with that promise, we bundled up!  MIL had no boots to wear. Well, she had gotten one two years ago before their trip to Montana & Wyoming. But we couldn't find them. I think they are packed up and in the storage room that's locked up in the building basement! So, all she had were sandals and sneakers that were porous. So, I got the idea for her to wear socks, and then put a plastic cover (the ones we get at supermarkets to put veggies/fruits in) on each foot and using rubber bands to hold it up before putting the feet in the shoes! See, watching MacGyver really paid up! 

Oh and I inaugurated my new boots today and they kept me warm and snug the whole time! yay!

It was really nice to walkabout in the snow. We couldn't see where the pavement ended and where the road began. Our street not being a main artery was not cleared up (although we did see a snow plough go up as we were heading back home)!  So the pedestrians took over the road! It was such fun! We tried making snowballs but the snow was too powdery to do that. ah well. We just enjoyed watching our feet sink in and walking up and down the street!
