5 a.m. -- My Masssachusetts kitchen window on December 27, 2010

We had about a foot and a half of snow; but the drifting makes it seem like more.  The trees were heavy-laden with the wet snow and the branches were bowing down toward the ground.  I noticed that my clothesline rope from a bent tree, was about 3.5 feet off the ground!
We did lose the power for an hour this afternoon.  What's on the outside of my kitchen bow window is the snow that was swirling and whipping around during the night.
This was a great day to stay in!
