Snow fun!

So it finally snowed in CT!! We're estimating that we got around 2 feet of snow today, and Pete and I decided to take full advantage and test out our new snowshoes. We eagerly sat inside all morning watching the snow come down until just before noon when we couldn't wait anymore. We got all our gear on, strapped on the new snowshoes (after removing the tags) and headed off to the bike path that's about 2 blocks from our house. Once we arrived at the path we found out, to our dismay, that the stupid town we live in PLOWED the bike path. We hung in there though and braved the powder on the sides of the trail - talk about a workout! Anyway, once we got home we played around in the backyard a bit enjoying the snowshoes, the snow itself, and one another's company.
