I think deep Snow White is more suitable! I feel for all of you and glad to see you on the site!! Means your safe and sound. I was thinking about guys and know what your going through. Our big storm here was the Blizzard of 78. We had 4to 5 feet dumped on us in a short period of time. I know it isn't has much has you had. But when the state is completely paralyzed in about 5 hours T that point it doesn't matter if it is 5 ft or 7 ft. I was out for 4 days straight towing, plowing, transporting nurses and people to hospital on snowmobiles and then running a front end loader for snow removal. It really brought people together. Neighbors you never see all came out to help.Let me know if there is anything we can do to help you. Watching the news you problems are not over yet. The snow might have stopped but you will feel the affect of this storm for months.

Wouldn't it be better to paint her black? 
Then you could find her easier.

The funny thing is the warmer it gets the smoother it looks.
