Snow white!

After the excitement of last night we woke to a winter wonderland this morning! The locals were all out clearing away the snow from driveways and footpaths and the snow ploughs were at it clearing the roads, even in this little cul-de-sac!

Snow ploughing Minneapolis style

Very efficient service so early

Paths cleared

Driveways cleared

Then, because of the weather we headed to the Mall of America  in Minneapolis city,supposedly the largest mall in America. It did not disappoint! Crammed full of amusement rides and an amazing IMAX theatre where the seats moved with the film.

Taken for a ride!

Even our own store!

Then home in time for a resumption of the snowing! The rain through the day had caused some ice to form so an early evening shift cleared the drive so we could get out safely in the morning. More snow forecast overnight so we're not sure what to expect in the morning!

Phil hard at work

Not sure exactly what the depth is but a rough measure is about 4 or 5 inches!
