They warned us for days and the warning was true.
Da snow came down and down and down and the wind she blew and blew and blew. When it died down we had around 18 inches or so, but it was the drifts the went higher. The driveway needed the attention of more than my little snowblower, but we did mange to punch an aisle out front for the mail carrier and the itinerant pedestrian or two.
We gone through winters when we barely shoveled at all and once every ten or fifteen years we have received one of these monsters. It's sort of the midwestern equivilent of Arizona's so called "dry heat."
Spring is just around the corner. Hang in there.
Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--
