SHARK SHARK... well, okay, not a shark, it's just Agnes the garden gargoyle, pretty much buried in the snow with just the tip of one wing protroding. I bet she's one ticked off and cold gargoyle 🙂 We received close to two feet of snow over an eighteen hour period yesterday and this morning. Shovelling and blowing …
