I lived in the High Sierras for years where we'd get five feet of snow overnight during the big storms. Over the winter, we'd often get 15-20 feet snowbanks and cars crushing beneath the weight. Sometimes, we'd get 30 and 40 foot snowdrifts and houses crushed beneath the weight. At that point, it's time to call in the National Guard for snow removal.

Still, Cleo's pics made me smile and think of home.
