Mailboxed in

I wouldn't say the snow has caused us huge problems so far.  Drivng in it isn't much fun; and shovelling can be a bit of a chore, particularly when the snow is heavy with ice, but it's exercise I suppose.  However the more it stacks up (and we're told there's more on the way), the more I wonder where it's all going to go come the thaw. 

Meanwhile one minor inconvenience is getting at the mail.  I guess the mailman is high up enough in his little white van and can just lean across to pop the letters into our roadside box, but I find I have to half-scramble over a bank of snow to get them out again. 









But it could be worse - one set of neighbours has almost lost its mailbox altogether.
