Bob checked out Thicut this afternoon. He says:
"The road was evidently plowed after the 'big' snow storm, but not the most recent one. There were about 2 inches of wet snow on the road. (He parked at the grassy lane.) It looked like the snow was plowed up against the barn door. There were LOTS of deer prints on the lawn. They've had a feast of Rhododendrons and Holly.
The inside of the house is in good shape, except it looks like water damage on the wall in the corner just inside the door where the cane/umbrella can is. The roof over the dining room is iced but thawing, probably the source of the water. The rest of the house looks good.
The brook is high with ice melt."

Oh, and after questioning, he walked up slushy/icy road (2" deep) and the through knee deep snow to the house. We're so ready for this snow to give up!
