Day 86 – also known as storm day 2

Well, we survived the windy night.  Note to builders, if possible – don’t connect the outdoor wires to the outdoor walls of a bedroom….do you have any idea how loud those are in a storm?  Oh well, at least our power only went off for 10 minutes sometime during the night.

We woke up to a blustery day but eventually the sun came out.  It was one of those storms which left snow at every door and window.

But somehow (fortunately) left the driveway near bare.

This guy just had to get somewhere this morning before the plows even came out to play.

Comparison shot to yesterday’s storm one. No bare road there!

In fact…..totally filled in beside us.  I hope our neighbor did not need to be anywhere today.  It was 3ish when they plowed the road but after 5 when her snow blowing tractor showed up.  What had been bare widened street was completely filled in last night – at least 2 feet high.

This was the plow’s first pass through the neighborhood.  You know it is bad when he has to come at it sideways just to get it out of the way.

Hubby was a bit worried about all that snow ending up in our driveway but the guy just pushed it into the street corner. Hopefully he does not come back to clean it up….there is a LOT of snow on the corner now.

If mother nature would give us a heads up, I’d invest in this service for hubby.
