Then I hope you you are still a child at heart because I loved what you wrote. I would be saddened to think you don't still feel that way.

But the revelation was fun and cute too.

It has warmed up a bit (if you can call 35 warm) but the damage is done with the snow. We got 9" here close in to the city, but it was over a foot in many places around the area. Still lots of schools, etc closed. We bagged out trip to Myrtle Beach. I think everyone in the Midwest, South, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast will agree that this has been the worst winter on record. And it's only mid Feb!!

Sorry you had to cancel your trip, Deb. Hopefully weather will be much better when you re-schedule.

Barbara & Matt. Rick takes care of the snow removal. I make an insincere offer to help which he declines. I think snow is pretty, for a little while, and only if I don't have to go to work.

We got a couple of more inches tonight. So I get to have "FUN" again tomorrow.
I feel your pain, and thank goodness my Red Honda (blower) has been able to keep up this year.

Billy, I like that 3rd shot, the march of the wiper blades.

Zip, my Honda snowblower has handled everything this year except the f'n mess the snow plow left me last week. In fact, a neighbor came to my rescue and his Kubota with a shovel was really stressed because it was so high and so hard.

So far "lil red" has taken care of all of the crap, it even blew through the snow/rain/sleet mess of yesterday.
