I had my first experience of shoveling snow today! It's quite hard work - more so than I expected. The main issue is where to put the snow, so it gets piled up in heaps on the side of the driveway. In Canada, everyone is responsible for your own sidewalk and driveway so you can end up shoveling snow for 40min every evening if it snows for days on end. The main problem is what to do with all the snow! You can see in this picture, some of the piles of snow and this is after only a few days of snow...
This is a picture out of my front car window, looking down the street.
The countryside is beautiful however under it's blanket of fluffy white snow. Much as everyone still laughs at me for enjoying the snow, I do still enjoy waking up to a white world in the morning. The novelty hasn't yet worn off. I also enjoyed watching the snow ploughs as they cleared the motorways this morning. Completely different to how things work in England when it snows.
