I have to go into the office, but haven't left the house yet. We didn't get any additional accumulation after I shoveled last night, but everything has iced over. I went to bring my trash barrel out front earlier and was wishing I had ice skates on! LOL. I'll have to be extra careful driving all the way there.

And good morning Kickin!

Well crap. Was hoping you didn't have to deal w/driving today. Although I know up there the snow removal is much better than here, so I'm not surprised. Just go slow, that's all you can do. At least you don't have to shovel more!

Also, April is still pregnant this morning so we didn't miss anything :) From their FB page (they got 2-3 FEET of snow!):

3/15 Morning Report

April is doing what she does best, and waiting, and we are thankful!

April and Oliver are doing well in their heated barn, while 2-3' of snow encapsulate the property. All other stock is sheltered in place and comfortable.

April's condition remains the same as days prior, for which we are thankful.

The live cam will experience issues throughout the day with signal, however the most current like link can always be found at www.ApriltheGiraffe.com

During this busy time, updates will be kept short and nonessential emails and inquiries will be addressed when appropriate.

I have to personally thank Joel, Allysa, Corey, & Olivia that have remained on site for over 24 hours to ensure the safety and well being of our animal family. When even the postal service had to bow out, our keepers have remained on duty!

Giraffe Factoid of the Day:
Though known for their long necks, giraffes actually have the same number of neck vertebrae as humans—which is seven total. Each vertebra is rather large, measuring up to ten inches long. These large and massive bones are what prevent serious injury when males engage in necking behavior.

I think they miscalculated her due date BIG time

If I remember right, I don't think this was a planned breeding. I think they said at some point it's hard to know the exact date of conception. But as of the update last night, it does appear to be coming soon.

WA, are you noticing trouble w/the live feed this morning? I gather it's storm related, but just making sure it's not me or my computer.

lol Kickin...you need more coffee. This was in the update you posted:

'The live cam will experience issues throughout the day with signal, however the most current like link can always be found at www.ApriltheGiraffe.com'

Yes it keeps going down. I have to keep looking for another live feed.

haha, 'tis true! I've only had 2 cups.

This one is working for the moment

I must say that I am impressed with the roads. They did a good job clearing and treating them. : )

I made it safe & sound.

Woo hoo thanks!

I'm on a different one that is also working. It's better now than it was earlier, but it still goes in/out occasionally.

That's great, seems like it didn't take you too long. I know you have a long commute on a good day.

Wow! How deep is it now? My Goodness that's a lot!! How much did the others of you affected get?

This is a brilliant film..
.watched it on showbox..

We only got about 8-10 inches here. But it was that heavy, brutal to shovel, wet snow. All of which is hard as cement this morning!

I wouldn't want to shovel waist deep snow!
