In Case You Were Thinking About Snow on a Roof...

So it's nice enough yesterday that Ed and I decide we can get away from the ranch long enough to check our cabin property in the mountains. We drive up there, and things look good--snow hasn't come off the shop/shed buildings yet, but it doesn't look too deep, relatively speaking. The buildings stood through twice that much snow depth last year. I even snap a picture of how picturesque things look. 

Famous last shutter click. When we went out this morning, the better of the two buildings had caved in during the night. Which happened to be a clear night, without a single flake of extra snow.

So, go figure. And if you're maybe THINKING you should be getting rid of the snow on a building or vehicle roof you own, you might want to get a move on.

Or at least get any live animals out from under it. We're pretty glad there was nothing inside this building except lawn furniture and other replaceable things.
