How much snow is left on the ground?

Only very small patches. Last weekend, though, I was wading through quite deep snow.How much snow is left on the ground?
Ok guys, I have to describe this the best I can....a picture wouldn't even do this scene justice.
Was walking out to the barn for night milking around 11:30 pm and was really dark in the sky as there was no moon tonight. We have a "street" light in the back of the house so you can't really see the stars very well until you get away from the light far enough.
So, as I am walking past the light, past the huge spruce trees and get closer to the barn, I notice light in the sky in the North. So I walk partly past the barn and the north field is lit up because of the snow. Beyond the field the woods start and there is a line of huge evergreen spruce, red pine white pine and others that look black because the Northern lights (aurora borealis) is lit up behind them in a blue green glow! They weren't strong enough to dance and change colors, but I just stopped, admiring the beauty of what God created. Looking up higher in the sky, as the light faded to a really dark sky, the stars were actually twinkling, and you could see thousands of them.
Made me think, how small and insignificant I am in this amazingly complex system He created, but He loves me enough to have sent His Son to die for me.......
With beauty like that, I bet heaven will just take our breath away......God bless you all.

An amazing post! Thank you HmL! I love looking at the stars at night and thinking how vast is the universe, and yet the Lord knows when one sparrow hops to the ground. He is awesome.Ok guys, I have to describe this the best I can....a picture wouldn't even do this scene justice.
