Curmudgeon and I are a coupla miles from Jeri -- we got maybe 4 or 5 inches. Windy, so some places have 2 inches or less and some spots are a little deeper. I think Jeri & I spent most of yesterday morning on the phone with each other, then mid afternoon I braved the driveway and trudged up the hill to my neighbor's place.
I had scheduled today off from work long before the forecast. Driveway got plowed this morning and we did some kitchen rearranging this afternoon in anticipation of the new fridge being delivered tomorrow morning.
Figures. We go all winter with no snow to speak of (except the December day I landed in the ditch) and what does it do but snow two days before the refrigerator guys need to get the new one in here and the old one out -- we have a 300 foot driveway that goes uphill to the road. And it meets the road just below the crest of the hill. Ah well -- the Sears guys are professionals, aren't they?
