Plan for Justin Mette

I'd be updating you on projects at 21-6 today if I wasn't busy digging out my house!

If you've been watching the weather channel, you might have seen that Denver is getting dumped on with the biggest storm in 20 years let me tell you, they ain't lyin! We took a couple of measurements around the house and the average was 34 inches. To top it off, it's still snowing and apparently will continue into the evening. How cool is that?

A quick comparison shot:
My house in the summer
My house about an hour ago

Here are a few other shots:
Door to backyard
Balconies and overhangs
Measuring
Front Porch
Back Window

Ok, back to your regularily scheduled programs...

Holy cow!

I just heard on the radio at noon about all the snow you were getting (I live in Kansas, so it caught my ear :)

They were talking to some reporter who got his car stuck on the way home and he was talking about wading through chest-high snow drifts to get home. Wow :)

Whoa. I've started packaging up some warm Florida heat to help melt that snow. It'll have to be air dropped, though, as I don't think FedEx can get through that. ;-)

In the meantime, maybe you can fashion a house-sized 21-6 logo out of it.

Make sure you get up and knock that snow off the roof. You don't want it to collapse. It was happening left and right in my area (Albany NY) over the last few months and I think our biggest storm was like 27 inches.

I hope that crap doesn't come here. I'm sick of winter. The past few days have been beautiful and I'm loving it.

I'm glad I live in Canada and not in Denver, land of ice and snow. ;)

My wife/kids wish they lived out west. They absolutly love the white fluff, personally I loath the sh!t ;)

It's been 40 years since it's snowed where I live, and from what I've heard it wasn't much.

Wow Justin, thats a lot of snow! Makes me wish I was back home in Montana. Snow is so much more fun than rain :)

Hey Justin, best of luck digging out. Anything more than a few inches is only fun when you don't have to shovel. and I feel your pain, most of us on the east coast have done our fair share of shoveling this winter.

oh, yeah, that roof cleaning is a good suggestion. Collapses and leaks aren't fun...

Justin if you decide to clean your roof, post pictures of it. For some reason a guy on a roof with a shovel stikes me as comedy material.

the bad things is snow eventually turns into a nice diahreah colored slush and stays around way longer than the pretty snow, at least around here . . .
