    WOW - clear roads!!!

    Those pics don't really show how steep that incline is up to the main road tho.

    Our very neighborly (NOT!!!) neighbor next door cleared his place out yesterday with his snowblower. Wouldn't it have been nice of him to offer the use of it to Steve today? Oh well - maybe some day he will need a favor from us.

    Steve, DIL and grandson shoveled all day with about an hour break for lunch, and it's still not done. The driveway is 100' long and 2 cars wide, and they got to about 5' from the end and where the snowplow plowed it closed, so nobody can get out yet. Of course my car is all the way at the opposite end by the garage, and they never dug that out, so I'll be going nowhere in a hurry. Of course, I have 2 appointments this week that I'll have to reschedule. It never rains, but it pours - or maybe that should be, it never snows, but it blizzards.

    I've been following this thread and I'm so glad that none of you lost your power and that everyone survived this horrible snow storm. I used to live in PA many years ago and then I grew up in S.C. so I know a little about snow but I was young and didn't have to drive in it. We've been having rain and wind here. Hopefully you won't get another big snow storm any time soon.

    Thats what we were watching at work yesterday. Since we're commission sales people, we're all worried about our budgets and goals! Our sales are pitiful so far this month.... everyone's been at the grocery store loading up on TP and potato chips, then they've been digging themselves out of the house. I'm just thankful the next round is planning to hit on my days off!
