> > > Ok, for those who were in RinkChat last night, and might still be wondering.. We successfully averted the Thundersnow we were supposed to get. I got up this morning at 5:30 (it's a little after 6:00 now) to see what had happened while I slept, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that only about 2 or 3 inches accumulated since I last scraped the driveway last night. Yay! So, I geared up and shoveled the whole thing in about 20 minutes. I'd say my pre-scraping last night did indeed help. I have neighbors who are still out there trying to work through the snow. hehe.

He said that they got a break from about 1 to 4 in the morning, and he got about 45 minutes of sleep. I think it's great to know that extremely tired people are out there making it safe for us. heh.

> heh, I dunno what's wrong with you people.... we just got 4 or 5 inches and it's still coming down, and we have a SNOW DAY!!!! Personally, I only like the winter if there's snow on the ground. There are several of us who did all the snow brining stuff (snow dances, wearing pajamas inside out and backwards, playing the didjeridu) we could think of to get it, and it worked!! Snow day, woohoohoo!!!

Haven't seen any snow yet this year. Barely had any challenging frosts to scrape from the wind shield. I'm ready for it to come a howling blizzard. Doesn't look like it'll happen any time soon though.
