Snowed in!



For the first time in over five years I was snowed in. Forget the fact that the left tread came off the snow blower (it was that thick) five minutes into the plowing. Even if I had plowed the driveway the street hadn't been plowed because they were working overtime. Since I'm out in the county and another thousand feet above lake level (which is at 6000 ft) my place isn't a high priority.

So, I called the other acts and said, "Looks like a two-man show tonight boys." Hey, at least the power never went off so that that was a blessing. The wood stove was working overtime last night as we cuddled up in front of it watching the snow come up to the level of the window. This morning the plows came and I gave the driver a bottle of wine who plowed a little into my driveway so that when I did finish the driveway made it more accessible to the street. How high was the snow this morning? Well, Mo was able to jump over the six foot fence in the backyard because there was that much snow on his side to leap over the fence! Will leave early tonight that's for sure with Nanc and head over to the comedy club. It's snowing in fact right now. This is what we so needed and I love the winter so with it comes the white stuff. Now I just need to find out where the mailbox is because it's totally covered in snow as of last night!
