Had to climb up on the roof today to clear three feet of snow, plus put some ice melt on an ice dam that formed over the rain gutters. Melting snow caused water to form a dam, which in turn was sending water into our bedroom. It was a scary couple hours, especially when you consider a slip would have sent me 20 feet down onto a snow-covered brick patio.

An hour after I climbed down from the roof about 15 deer gathered at the edge of the patio and began chewing on the ends of branches--not a good sign when this many deer show up at the same time. About 20 minutes later the snow began falling again. The telephone rang, tonight's job and tomorrow morning's job were cancelled.

Total cancellations due to weather this year=13.

Just another fun day in paradise!
