My Westy lucked out! No snow around it, just a lot of drifting snow but the rest of my yard is another story.

I lost power early yesterday evening. I hooked up the generator
we bought not to long ago. About midnight it ran out of gas,wtf!
I looked and accidentally left the choke partially on. When
refilling I heard the tree right next to my 87 Westy making noises.
So I shoveled th driveway enough to move it out of the way.
When I went out this morning a good portion of the tree
came down right where my Westy was.
Thanks goodness I am such an idiot and left the choke
for the generator on...

Bill I am in my back yard listening to my big Maple creeking and cracking in the wind, glad it won't reach my
Westy but there are others that can!
