Thank you both! Our school district has already closed the schools for tomorrow! It is now after 9:00 at night here... the snow stopped around noon time and the plows still have not come to dig us out! My kids are thrilled!

Yep, I'd say that's a bit deeper than six inches!! Cool shot, and I'm sure the kids are going to have a great time.

That was quite a storm....definitely more than 6 inches unless those kids are about a foot tall...lol
Nice shot.

Cute photo, next time you might want to try dialing in some positive exposure compensation so the snow comes out white not grey.
