    Just a wee storm

    Well today The Great White North lived up to it's name, it started snowing this morning and just stopped a while ago, anyway as I said on another thread I was shoveling for much of the day, here are some pictures that were snapped

    Me in my cold weather gear 16oz of Lochcarron wool, my charcoal braemar and waistcoat, winter hose from Hector Russell, and my hand knit Jacobite tam, a perfect outfit for the climate.


    Here we are helping Dan who got stuck coming into the parking lot, it was plowed at 7:00 am however as we have a midnight shift this is about 7:00 pm


    Standing around waiting to see if Dan can get in, shovel in hand


    I must say if you have weather like this there is nothing like wool, I just might have to order one of those MoD kilts from What Price Glory, 16oz was warm, but I bet 22ozs would be better.

    We had a couple of inches of snow in southern Ohio. Looks like you got a lot more. I guess I should have kept on the kilt when I cleared the driveway but ended up in jeans. You can keep the snow up north if you like. I don't mind a bit.

    Thank goodness that 'wee storms' like that are things of the past for me. I don't miss the snow and ice form Chicago one little bit. You guys up north can keep it all.

    Now, why didn't you make a kilted snow angel?

    Mmm...yeah...I snow's good. Just don't slip on ice while in your kilt.

    Just finished shovelling my driveway. Now I've gotta shovel the neighbours as they're away for Christmas.





    Oh my aching back !
