So things dont look too bad, just as long as people dont get over confident and start trying to play demolition derby out there. |
Was happy to hear your area didn't get what was predicted as a possibility. Glad your go pack stayed home. Looks like the pups had a bit of fun in the snow lol, cute lil babies.

That is the really difficult part,since that part is where the plow piles the snow. I still have to shovel my path to the door, but I got the rest of the driveway done. I can only do half hour stints because of my hands, even with two pairs of gloves on.
We have a two hour delay tomorrow morning for our schools, so hopefully that will ease up the driving in the morning. It's beautiful, but I'm not too crazy about snow. We usually brave the cold and snow, but poor Katie has not had her walk today. She romped for a short while where I shoveled, but she will have to settle for indoor play today. |
So happy the area's expected to get that 36" lucked out and no power loss. Only 2 more months to go through this.
Here on the mountain we got 7" of the 12" predicted, it was bitter cold, I near fainted when I saw a crew of 4 young men walking up my driveway with shovels

10 bucks to clear driveway. I am living here 13 years, this is the first ever. 10 minutes they were finished, all I had to do was clean the cars off and spread salt, my fingers were numb after 20 minutes, but was so grateful for those guys. Glad everyone fared well.
