The year we had 48 inches in less then 24 hours here. The old man just about lived in the truck plowing. Plowing and then when he had everything done, he started over agained because it fell that fast. If you didn't keep ahead of the snow, you were screwed. First it was hard to find a place to push it to. Second, how can you push 48 inhches into the next 48 inches and so on? So you had to do it a number of times to keep it at a level the plow could handle. If not you better know someone with a pay loader. You should see the number of friends you have, knowing that you have your own plow during good size storms. They all call and ask you for a small favor. Or you should be willing to pay some big dollars to get your business back open for the next day. Here they truck out the snow from downtown and dump it in the river or lakes. No place to pile it up in city areas. Anyway. If iy gets bad, most people will just kick back and relax on Monday. Enjoy natures forced time out!

Now if only I could have such luck with work, but am almost certain that will not be the case. Still haven't ventured outside to dig out the car...I don't see the point yet the way it's coming down.

We didn't get it too badly here, maybe 6". We're supposed to get more, but I don't see it. Nowhere near the 12+ we were supposed to get. Time to shovel out my car (next to the truck) though

I told him that we are going out for a good wine and dine after he's all better. And boy do I deserve it!! The good news is - the pool's full! Wait, that's a bad thing right now, isn't it??? Hot tub?? God that sounds good, DC. I'll have to make do with my shower massage, although I may be wrestling the heating pad away from Mr. Babe.

Hope Mr. Babe isn't tied to the bed!! Anyway, we just got in from digging out the car...what a job!! Might have to do a bit more in the morning but the bulk of it is finished. My daughter helped a bit, scraping the windows she's so cute. I'm going to make her some hot chocolate now while her little legs thaw. Apple

To tell you the truth, I've never seen that entire movie from start to finish so I only vaguely recalled the 'pig' when you mentioned it. But that breaking of James Caan's legs is something I'll NEVER forget...even if you've seen it a hundred times, you still let out a 'AAAAGGGH' every time she swings that hammer!!! And yes, I did love spending this weekend with my little one. She hasn't even asked for money yet!! Apple

We got about 17". Some drifts were higher. I couldn't get out my back door. Pic 1 shows the snow up the door about 2 ft. Apple - Marcello's of Suffern. That's our favorite local restaurant. Didn't have the veal SB, but I had the crab cake appetizer and the sea bass entree. My wife had a spinach and veal ravioli appetizer and a stuffed pork chop. For dessert; creme brulee and panna cotta with raspberry sauce, espresso. The wine of the evening was Hofstaeder Pinot Grigio, dry and light with a hint of ...something.
