You'd think they would see the corn in the dish, instead of concentrating on the piles Frank dumped in the snow. The deer ultimately did eat from the dishes, but only two turkeys were brave enough to try.

When the turkeys show up (normally 16), the deer (we have 10 does and fawns here regularly) usually go up on the hill and wait until the turkeys leave. Not this morning...they were all pretty hungry.

This photo may be the best example of how much more snow we have gotten in this latest event. This tree fell during a wind storm several years ago.

There is no way we are getting out of here at this point. Fortunately our wonderful neighbors came over with their four wheeler and plowed it later in the day. We have gotten yet another inch of snow since then. The dark patch of snow at the bottom is on the top of a low storage shed beneath the window.

Prior to this event and since the Adirondack photo taken on the 19th, the ice slipped down some, and now seems fixed in place. There was no snow remaining on the railings before this latest winter onslaught.

They did say we got about 1 1/2" in the last 24 hours...what do you think?
