Snow, this seems to be a reoccurring theme that i am experiencing up here at Plymouth State. A few days ago on the 26th we got hit with another 16 inches of the perfect snow. This brings our total snowfall to date up to 118 inches. We are expecting another 8 on Friday. It never seems to end and it is almost impossible to find a place to park these days.

On the night of the 26th i found a parking space at the end of the lot. I came down the next day expecting to see what i have seen every time, some snow on my truck and a little wall that the plow pushed in front of me. HA, i was mistaken, i get to my truck and i see that a 4 foot wall of snow is in front of my truck. We have gotten so much snow that the maintenance crew has run out of places to put the snow. When the they went to plow this time, the plow could not push it back any further. Lucky for me, my friend Jesse was there to help me dig out. Because of my back i was not eager to jump in and shovel snow, but Jesse offered to help me out, so he dug and i took pictures.

If you look behind my truck you can see some more piles of snow that are so big they tower over you when get right next to them. I have even heard stories of people hiking on trails that normally have 10 foot high rocks that you have to weave in and out of, but now where they are walking it looks flat.

So i have just now started to bring my camera to everyday life. Today was just your normal day, the man with the mush stash will most likely be my roommate for next year. The female that is depicted is a climber friend of mine that just got sponsored by Powerbar.

As far as the eat dirt license plate, i saw this as i was trying to find a parking space. I find it amusing that this is on the front of the truck. For anyone to see this the front of the truck with the eat dirt logo would have to have been the eating all the dirt. Live Free or Die……i guess.

Great new movie, that takes the Beatles songs and weaves them into a story.
