http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/6/1/1133242/brokefence.JPGHere is a picture of the broken piece of fence.Mom thinks it could have been the plow but judging how the fence is leaning,I think the neighbor did it with his plow.

Oh my goodness!!! Those pictures are beautiful, Barry. I know it has to be a pain but it's so gorgeous. I can see sparkles in the snow.
