Snowed In

Even living at such a high elevation, we really don't get snowed in that often. Last year we made the mistake of not purchasing a snowblower. Let's just say that Mark didn't need to worry a bit about putting on winter weight with all of the shoveling he was doing! He was able to keep up because we didn't really get a lot of snow at one time last year. It was pretty slow and steady.

We just had our first big storm come through yesterday and last night. This year we're REALLY glad that we got a snowblower. I think total we ended up with about 3 1/2 feet. About two feet of that was waiting for him on our driveway this morning. You know it's deep when your 16 month old watches her Daddy push the snowblower out of the garage into the snow and says, "Stuck."

What time did they come plow your roads?

Jan, it looked like he came around 3 am. By the time Mark got up to start clearing there was already another foot on the street. I don't think he came again either. I'm really hoping I'm not going to have to harass the plow guy this winter.
