From top left, clockwise:
1. Rubble pile of snow in front of our south-facing windows represents snow that fell by Saturday morning and slid off the roof.
2. Twelve inch ruler in the snow at capacity. My thumb and finger indentations are all that allowed the camera to see the ruler.
3. Curving snow cascading in slow-motion from the south roof, creating an ever smaller gap between the roof snow and the ground snow.
4. The fog on this quilting ruler demonstrates that it was recently buried in 13.25 inches of snow.
5. A peek out the south window this morning shows the rubble pile (from image 1) has been smoothed into a "snow dune".
6. Looking directly at the south windows, a giant jaw of snow appears to be clamping down on our little cottage.
7. Last nights windswept snow piled up against our front door as much as 8.5 inches.
8. This morning finds the Beetle even more immobilized than before.
9. Remember the Japanese lantern from this Heidicoaster post? It's in there.

If that is a "genuine" German Beetle, it will survive the snow and cold and revive in the Spring to "buzz" once again.
Long Live the Beetle!!
Look on the "good side": Snow is a pretty good insulator [I hope the Praying Mantis believes this also!].
