A case of CABIN FEVER!!

Well, I am sure everyone has heard of or is experiencing the crazy winter storms all throughout the US of A. Here in Oregon is no different. Our little Pabst family is very used to the snow. We have lived in Utah for all of our married life. What we are not used to, however, is living in a state where it snows unexpectedly and no one is prepared for it and so the whole state panics. There are no snow plows here in Oregon and so when you get 19 inches of snow in a couple of days...EVERYTHING shuts down.
Just to show you, this is what our last week looked like.
Saturday night...first snow fall
Sunday morning...church is cancelled
