...Snowbusters...

Remember the 80's movie the Ghostbusters (which was a pretty awesome movie)...

...well - our Church has the Snowbusters - in the fall when they are trying to recruit new members they get up during the announcements and do a little Ghostbuster routine (I wish that I had taped it) with a catchy Who Ya Gonna Call rhyme - and they have toboggans with the Snowbuster logo on them too...so cute...

...y'all know we've been swamped with snow and have feet of 'snow on snow'(a quote from one of my favorite hymns - do you know it?)...

...anywhooo - cleaning the sidewalks got to be too much even for the snowblower...so one of the Snowbusters showed up with a super snowblower and front end loader to get the job done...

...then several Snowbusters attacked the feet of snow on the Church roof - everyone is so worried about the weight of 4-5 feet of snow - luckily most of it has blown off of our roof - but a lot of that has to do with the orientation of your house - and we've seen several people around town up on their roof shoveling snow...

...so that's how we manage to get the sidewalks clear for Church each Sunday...we call the Snowbusters!...

  2. I can't even imagine that much snow! We are having flurries today and all the grocery stores are packed with people stocking up with food incase we are about to have a snow apocalypse! We tend to freak out here when it comes to winter weather. ;)

  4. Gosh, that's some snow. I've started to look at your weather on Foreca, like Emily, I can't imagine that much snow.

    I've never been to the mountains either!
