buried

Yesterday morning my phone rang at 5:45 a.m.. it was the store calling wanting to know if I could come into work because no one else could get there because of the snow. I told him I would try and let him know. When I attempted to let Gibbs out the snow was so deep that I was pushing it with the door. I called back and said sorry there's no way I'm going to get out of my driveway. When all was said and done I think there was probably at least three feet of snow piled up at the end of my driveway. The search was on for someone to plow

These are not very good pictures, they were all taken through the window.

One of the deli girls who managed to make it to work said that the manager that was there was having her fry donuts. They weren't even open and at 8:00 the store still wasn't open.

First attempts to find someone to plow were not going well. Then all of a sudden I had two call backs at once.

My son in law was actually on his way over to shovel for me because he didn't want me to be out there trying to shovel. 

Around 3:00 someone showed up to plow. I'm pretty sure it was the guy who mows for me. He was the first one I contacted but I didn't think he was going to make it because he said he would try but that they were pretty overwhelmed. When he got done plowing he drove off without coming and asking to get paid so I'm sure it was him since he always billed me for mowing.

We haven't had a snowfall like this in a long time and I hope it will be a long time before we have another one. This was just too much.
