This is of the "alley" leading out to the goat shed. That drift in the far rear is the one we step up on, step over the fence into the goat pen, then down to the shed. The girls have about a 3 foot path in front of their shed to pace. Most of the time, they are content to stay inside. Right now, we are also hauling water, because the waterer is buried and frozen. We'll have to replace some parts on it whenever it thaws! You can also see the corner of the chicken house to the right. The chickens can get outside under the roof, but no where else is open. Egg output has dropped from a dozen a day to 3 or 4.
That blurry "lump" on top of the quonset is actually 5 kids. With that snow, heavy, wet snow piled up beside the quonset, they climbed up and then rode their sleds down.
This one shows that even the dog got on top of the quonset. Guess she felt left out.
This last one is just of the driveway. We dug this out twice. It kept blowing shut. Right now, in this shot, it's wide enough for a pickup to get down. That's it. This snow is probably 20" deep, but in spots, it's up to 4' deep. If the wind blows again, this will blow shut...again.

Wow. Those are amazing. My parents talk about being on the Canadian praries and being able to sled down buildings. Pictures of it actually happpening are pretty cool though. TFS!
