Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow...

Yeah, right!! Last Thursday night (Nov 30th) we got hit with a major snow storm (we even had "Thundersnow") hit our area. We first started off with a couple of inches of sleet, then we got 14-15" of snow on top of that. Needless to say, I didn't make it in to work on Friday morning. I wouldn't have even made it in if I could have shoveled out the driveway as the snow plow didn't come by our house until close to 5pm. I shoveled for what seemed like an eternity on Friday. I made it close to the end of the driveway when I quit, as I knew the snow plow would leave a big wall of ice/snow when it eventually came. So Saturday left me trying to dig out from all that mess, which I did around noon. We went out after lunch to go buy some groceries as we were getting kind of low since my wife was waiting until payday to go shopping. It was a major ordeal all around the area. Even today when I dropped off my son at school, they hadn't gotten the majority of the parking lot scraped off yet. I was a little worried about getting around in it as I was in my pickup truck which is pretty light and rear-wheeled, but I made it! HA! The temps have been pretty chilly in the mornings too... only around 8 degrees! Bbbrrrrr!

December sure came in with a bang!

Blessings!
